BiographyBiography: Hendrick van Steenwyck the younger was the son of the art dealer Hendrik van Steenwyck the elder and probably also his pupil for a period. He worked for some time in Frankfurt am Main, Antwerp and The Hague and eventually travelled to London. He returned to the northern Netherlands around 1645 and settled in Leiden. Van Steenwyck the younger mainly painted church interiors and architectural motifs and collaborated with figure painters who included Frans Francken II, Adam Elsheimer and Cornelis van Poelenburgh.
