- Short Description
- "Nicolaes de Bruyn (Antwerp, 1571 - Rotterdam, 1656) was a Flemish engraver, who after training in Antwerp was active in the Dutch Republic.
De Bruyn was the son of the sugar manufacturer Jan de Bruyn and nephew of the engraver Abraham de Bruyn. He was the brother-in-law of Jan van Londerseel, another Flemish engraver who would move to Rotterdam. He was trained in the art of engraving by his uncle Abraham. He did not follow he style of his master, either in the style of his execution, or in the size of his plates. He appears to have studied and to have formed his style from the works of Lucas van Leyden." - (en.wikipedia.org 04.06.2021) - Entity Encoding
