Tobias Verhaecht (1561–1631)

Tobias Verhaecht (1561–1631)
Painter and draughtsman active in Antwerp, Florence and Rome. Primarily a landscape painter. His style is indebted to mannerist world landscapes of artists like Joachim Patinir with high viewpoints, fantastic distant perspectives and three-colour scheme. Before Verhaecht entered Antwerp's guild of St. Luke in 1590–91, he had already spent time in Italy, first in Florence, and then as a fresco painter in Rome.
 
Master of Peter Paul Rubens, who was a relative by marriage and studied with him around 1592, but he did not influence his later work. Other students: his own son, Willem van Haecht. and Jacques Backereel, Cornelis Bol, Pieter van den Hoeck, Abraham Matthys, Marten Rijckaert and Joos de Momper.
