Cornelis Bisschop (12 February 1630 – 21 January 1674), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.
According to Houbraken he was the first to paint carved trompe-l'œil wooden panels in such an ingenious way that they became quite popular.
[2] He painted historical allegories, portraits, still lifes, and genre-works.
He was asked to paint for the Danish court, but he died unexpectedly, leaving his wife and eleven children.
These had been his students along with Margaretha van Godewijk who wrote an emblem about his self-portrait with a curtain, which illustrates the legend of Zeuxis.
