He was born at Amsterdam, Dutch Republic, where he learned sculpture from his father and Canova, and devoted himself principally to that branch of art; but he at first practised miniature painting, and in his twentieth year proceeded to Paris specially to improve himself therein.

In 1820 he was made a member of the Institute at Amsterdam, and director of the Royal Academy there.
