(b. 1598, Weesp, d. 1655, Weesp)

Details

Dutch painter. He was the burgomaster of Weesp. He was a Dutch Reformed Protestant, but this did not prevent him from painting an Entombment for the Catholic church in Weesp. He painted church interiors but did not specialise in this genre, several portraits and various biblical scenes by him, dating between 1635 and 1654, are known. However, the combination of a church interior, group portrait, and genre scene is unique in his oeuvre. //
