Magdalena van de Passe

Magdalena van de Passe (1600–1638) was a Dutch engraver and member of the Van de Passe family of artists from Cologne who were active in the Northern Netherlands.

[3] When she was 33 or 34, she married the artist Frederick van Bevervoordt, but he died two years later.

She is known for landscapes and portraits, but also collaborated with her brother Willem on 65 engravings for Henry Holland's Heroologia Anglica,[4] published in 1620.

She helped her father with an illustration of Karel van Mander's translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses, but this major project was never completed.

[3] She was granted a patent from the States General for the manufacture of sleeping caps printed with engravings of popular figures.
