About this person

Many of his paintings reflect a trend in Antwerp painting around 1700 that shows artists - often historical masters from earlier in the century like Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony van Dyck or Jacob Jordaens - in their studios, surrounded by paintings and sculptures, and teaching the craft to a young apprentice. The masters are often only hinted by the works of art pictured in the painting itself, however.
