Notities over Dirk van HOOGSTRATEN

Dirk van Hoogstraten (1596-1640) and his brother Samuel were two Dutch painters. Dirk was a grandson of Francois van Hoogstraten, who emigrated from Antwerp, Belgium, on account of his Mennonitism and settled in Dordrecht, Dutch province of South Holland, where Dirk was born. Dirk was one of the few painters who joined the Anabaptists. He was at first a silversmith, but after a journey through Germany he felt drawn to painting and engraving. Of his works only a few have been preserved. One of his pictures, "Mary and her Mother and the Christ child," is in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Dirk van Hoogstraten was the father and teacher of the better-known painter Samuel van Hoogstraten (born 2 August 1627 at Dordrecht, died there 19 October 1678), who was also a disciple of Rembrandt.
