Cornelis Verelst was supposedly an Anglo-Dutch artist, a brother or nephew of Simon Verelst and who painted flower pieces. This account of his life has been largely based on the writings of Jacob Campo Weyerman who admitted to knowing little of the artist. There is no archival evidence for Cornelis Verelst.

About this person
Cornelis Verelst was supposedly an Anglo-Dutch artist, a brother or nephew of Simon Verelst and who painted flower pieces. This account of his life has been largely based on the writings of Jacob Campo Weyerman who admitted to knowing little of the artist. There is no archival evidence for Cornelis Verelst. It seems likely that Weyerman was referring to William Verelst (1651-1702), John Verelst (1648-1679) or John Verelst , or has conflated two or more of these lives.
