Biography


He wrote a comprehensive book about art Cabinet des singularitez which the historian Arnold Houbraken used as a source for Dutch painters active in France, along with similar books on artists by Roger de Piles and André Felibien.[1] Though Houbraken quotes the French title, in his biographical sketch of Romeyn de Hooghe he includes a long citation in Dutch from the Dutch translation.[1]

According to the RKD his Cabinet des singularitez written in 1699 was translated into Dutch in 1708.[2] Though he called himself a painter and sculptor, no works are known.[2]
