Biography
Flower piece
According to Houbraken, he painted as a hobby, since he earned his living as the director of the local Bank van Lening.[1] He specialized in landscapes, flowers, fruit and other forms of still life.[1] He was a very friendly man, especially to artists and art collectors.[1]
He was active in Enkhuizen (and perhaps Amsterdam), in Purmerend from 1679–1683, and in Hoorn from 1683 until his death.[2]
