Etching by Ploos van Amstel, with colored pencil after Adriaen van Ostade, ca. 1765-1782, collection Teylers Museum
According to the RKD, he was a pupil of Norbert van Bloemen and Jacobus Buys, and later became a member of the Amsterdam artist society Arte et Amicitia (De Kunstkrans).[1] He is mostly known as a collector and copyist of 17th-century artists.[1] He married Elisabeth Troost, the daughter of Cornelis Troost. His pupils were Christina Chalon, William V, Prince of Orange, Elisabeth van Woensel, and Hermanus Petrus Schouten.[1] According to Van der Aa he kept an art cabinet with over 5,000 drawings, including many by Rembrandt. In 1800 his collection was auctioned (without the Rembrandts, which were auctioned later) for the enormous sum of 109,406 guilders.[2]
