Biography


He was a painter whose pictures possess great merit, and are to be met with in almost every collection.[1] He is stated to have been born at Haarlem in 1684, and to have died at the same place in 1751, having been a pupil of Romeyn De Hooghe and of Bartholomeus Engels.[1][2] He painted landscapes in a very pleasing and natural style, resembling the charming productions of Ruisdael, but without the servility of an imitator.[1] He also excelled in caricature.[1]

He was a member of the Haarlem Guild of St. Luke from 1706 until his death.[2] His pupils were Cornelis van den Berg, Tako Hajo Jelgersma, and Cornelis van Noorde.[2] His portrait was engraved by his pupil Jelgersma.
