Jan Baptist Brueghel

Jan Baptist Brueghel (baptised 26 December 1647 – 1719) was a Flemish Baroque flower painter.

It was customary for the Bentvueghels to adopt an appealing nickname, the so-called 'bent name'.

The early Dutch biographer Houbraken mentioned Brueghel in a poem about the Bentvueghels at the end of his second volume on artists.

[1] Houbraken mentioned him again in his third volume in the list of artists who signed Abraham Genoels' bentbrief.

[3] Jan Baptist Brueghel died in Rome.
