Notes about Samuël van HOOGSTRATEN

Samuel van Hoogstraten was de zoon van een goudsmid, graveur en schilder. Nadat zijn vader in 1640 overleed, ging Samuel tot 1648 in de leer bij Rembrandt (1606-69). Tussen 1651 en 1654 maakte hij een reis naar Duitsland en naar Wenen, waar hij van keizer Ferdinand III een gouden medaille kreeg voor een trompe l'oeil-stilleven. Nadat hij in Rome en opnieuw in Wenen was geweest, keerde Van Hoogstraten terug naar Dordrecht. Van 1662 tot 1666 woonde de schilder in Londen waar hij de grote brand van dat jaar meemaakte.
Hij beeldde zeer uiteenlopende onderwerpen af: bijbelse en mythologische verhalen, portretten, landschappen en zijn bekende stillevens. Een van z'n leerlingen die soortgelijke stillevens maakte, was Cornelis van der Meulen. Naast gedichten en toneelstukken schreef Van Hoogstraten zijn beroemde boek over schilderkunst: Inleyding tot de Hooge Schoole der Schilderkunst, dat kort voor zijn dood werd uitgegeven in 1677.


painter Samuel van Hoogstraten (born 2 August 1627 at Dordrecht, died there 19 October 1678), who was also a disciple of Rembrandt. On a long voyage in 1651-1654 he visited Rome and also Vienna. In 1662-1666 he was often in London. Dutch and foreign picture galleries possess pictures painted by him. He was the author of Inleyding tot de hooge Schoole der Schilderkonst, anders de zichtbare werelt (Rotterdam, 1678). He also was the author of a song book and two tragedies. He was a member of the Dordrecht Mennonite congregation until he was banned for marrying outside the brotherhood. He then joined the Reformed Church. Frans van Hoogstraten, a son of Samuel, was a book dealer in Rotterdam; he too left the Mennonites about 1660 to become a Roman Catholic. Jan and David van Hoogstraten, sons of Frans, who were respectively a book dealer at Gouda and a medical doctor and senior master of a Latin school at Amsterdam, are known as poets.
