Jacob Esselens
1626 - 15.01.1687
Jacob Esselens was a Dutch landscape painter and draughtsman of the Golden Age of Dutch painting.
Esselens was a cloth merchant and traveled to Germany, France, Italy, England, and Scotland. During these trips he made many depictions of landscapes and cityscapes, some of which were included in Van der Heem's Atlas.
The influence of Rembrandt and Simon de Vlieger can be traced in the works of the self-taught artist Esselens. In addition to many topographically accurate landscapes and urban landscapes, the artist created fantasy landscapes in which he emphasized animal and human figures.
