Jan van Londerseel

Jan van Londerseel[1] (Antwerp, between 1570 and 1575 - Rotterdam, 1624–25) was a Flemish draughtsman, engraver, etcher and print maker.

His wife's brother Nicolaes de Bruyn was another Flemish engraver who made a name in the Dutch Republic.

[3] The majority of his work consists of landscapes, in which he shows a preference for picturesque details, such as gnarled trees.

The engravings emphasise the contrast between black and white in the foreground and the backgrounds which are pale and lightly etched.

[3] A remarkable piece is the Bird's Eye View of The Hague and Scheveningen from the North-East made in collaboration with Nicolaes de Clerck in 1614.
