Jacobus de Baen

Jacobus de Baen (1673, The Hague – 1700, Vienna), was a Dutch Golden Age portrait painter who was the son of Jan de Baen.

[1] According to the RKD he learned to paint from his father Jan de Baen.

[2] In 1693 he travelled with the party of William III to London.

[2] According to Jan van Gool who wrote his biography in his "Nieuwe Schouburg" in 1750, he spent more than he earned when he was with the Bentvueghels, and increased his productivity when he left Rome.

He could have been a greater painter than his father if he had lived longer.
