Biography:
Arnold Houbraken was a late 17th and early 18th century painter and more importantly, writer on art. His present reputation lies in his biographical work, The Great Theatre of Netherlandish Men and Women Painters, which is contained into three volumes. Written as a sequel to van Mander’s 1604 book, Houbraken’s work is the most significant source on 17th century Dutch art.
