Huybrecht Jacobsz, or Hubertus Grimani (1562 in Delft – 1651 in Den Briel), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.
According to biographer Arnold Houbraken he was a contemporary of Adriaen van Utrecht who travelled to Italy and spent many years in the service of Marino Grimani (doge) in Venice, whose name he adopted.
[3] According to Hessel Miedema who researched van Mander's Schilder-boeck, Grimani and van Rijk travelled to Italy in 1588, and Grimani was listed in the Delft Guild book, opened in 1613, as the second best painter of Delft after Michael Mierevelt.
[4] The Utrecht diaries of Aernout van Buchel also mentioned him as one of two noteworthy painters in Delft in May 1598.
According to Dirk van Bleiswijk, who wrote a history of Delft, he was born between 1556 and 1566, and was 9 or 10 years with Marino Grimani who became doge in 1595.
