Hendrick Goltzius (1558-1647)
Master of the Burin. A monument in engraving art. Leading figure of the mannerist school of Dutch engravers. For technique as an engraver Goltzius is considered as unsurpassed, even by Dürer. He was a pupil of Dirk Volckertz, Coornhert and Philippe Galle. His mannerism was highly influenced by Spranger but after a journey to Italy he developed it to a less exaggerated form. His designs where engraved, often with even more skill by his contemporain Jan Saenredam and Goltzius pupil and son of Goltzius second wife: Jacob Matham.
This designs are masterly done and Goltzius, Matham and Saenredam where superb engravers. Their work makes part of the upper-class art-sales. The works below are mostly inventions of Goltzius, engraved by himself or engraved by Saenredam or Matham. Few others are engravings by Saenredam on his own invention.
