Biography
According to Houbraken he took part in a painting contest with Jan van Goyen and Jan Porcellis.[1] Of the three finished paintings, the one done by Porcellis was considered the best.[1]
According to the RKD he was a pupil in The Hague of Michiel van den Sande from Utrecht, with whom he traveled to Rome in 1614.[2] He was back in Utrecht in 1615 and became a member of the Confrerie Pictura in the Hague in 1629.[2] His daughter Catharina also became a landscape painter.
