Biography:
After moving to Haarlem at the age of nineteen, Hendrick Goltzius married a rich widow who funded the establishment of his workshop. He spent his life in the city except for a yearlong trip to Germany and Italy in 1590 that brought him into contact with classical and naturalistic art. His panoramic landscapes were forerunners for later Dutch artists such as Rembrandt van Rijn. Goltzius was best known for his printmaking but has to abandon the medium in 1600 due to his failing eyesight and inability to work with painstaking engraving tools. Although he believed that printmaking was inferior to painting, he died in 1617 without reaching the same quality in his paintings as he had in his engravings.
