Frans van den Wyngaerde (1614 - 79) [Franciscus Van Den Wyngarde Chalcographus]
Portrait.
Frans van den Wyngaerde or Frans van den Wijngaerde was a Flemish printmaker, draughtsman and publisher. Son of a fishmonger and pupil of one of the students of Rubens, he became one of the leading print publishers in 17th-century Antwerp. As far as known he had no close connection with the earlier draughtsman Anthony van den Wyngaerde (1525-71), who was also a native of Antwerp and son of an artist, though they were probably from the same wider family.
