Franz Wulfhagen

Franz Wulfhagen (c. 1624–1670) was a German Baroque painter and engraver.

According to Houbraken, he was born in Bremen, but he moved to Amsterdam where he became a pupil of Rembrandt.

He learned to copy his style well, and thus was able to make a living from painting the rest of his life.

[2] He painted many mayors of Bremen, and these paintings hang in the town hall there.
