Biography

According to the RKD, he worked mostly in Leiden. He was studying there in 1628; in 1636 he was spending time in Amsterdam, but was back in Leiden in 1638. He became a member of the Leiden Guild of St. Luke in 1648, 1651, and during the years 1665–1676.[1] His works are in the style of Mierevelt, but not as richly detailed. Some of his portraits were engraved by Dutch and French engravers.[1]
