Jan Coxie

Jan Coxie[1] (baptized on 26 February 1629 – 1670) was a Flemish painter and draughtsman mainly known for his landscape paintings.

He was a member of the Coxie family of artists which played an important role in the development of Flemish painting in the 16th and 17th centuries.

[3] Jan Coxie trained under his father and was accepted as a master of the local Guild of Saint Luke in 1651.

Examples of the former are two paintings of Hagar and the Angel in the Wilderness (one in the Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille, the other in the Fogg Museum, Cambridge, Massachusetts) and some of the landscapes painted for the Park Abbey in Heverlee that depict scenes from the life of St Norbert such as the Meeting between St Norbert and Godefridus.

[6] Four works at the Park Abbey (documented 1651) have minor figures painted by Jan van Rintel while the other two signed ones have none.
