Details

Dutch printmaker and draftsman, part of a family of artists, second son and pupil of Abraham Bloemaert. He learned the art from his father, and was chiefly occupied in engraving after his designs. We have a number of etchings by him as well as prints in chiaroscuro. His principal work was a drawing-book, containing 173 plates, engraved from the designs of his father. He also executed a few plates entirely with the graver. //
