About Romeyn de Hooghe

1645–1708Dutch Republic

Romeyn de Hooghe (1645–1708) was a Dutch Baroque engraver, draughtsman, and political satirist who became the most prolific and versatile graphic artist of the Dutch Republic in the late seventeenth century. Born in Amsterdam to the son of an illiterate button-maker, he rose to become one of early modern Europe's most important printmakers and a pioneering master of political satire.
