About ‘Portrait of Laurens Reael, Cornelis van der Voort’
Portrait of Laurens Reael, Cornelis van der Voort (1620)
Cornelis van der Voort or van der Voorde was a Dutch Golden Age portrait painter from the early 17th century.
Very little is known about Van der Voort's early life. He was born in Antwerp; his father was Pieter van der Voort, a painter. It is thought he studied with Cornelis Ketel. As a young man he was praised by Karel van Mander. In 1606 his brother Hans, a tailor, bought three parcels on which two houses were built. Hans moved into the one on the corner, and Cornelis in the one next to it. Only a few years later Cornelis sold the house; in 1639 Rembrandt and his wife Saskia van Uylenburgh moved in. Today it is the Rembrandt House Museum.
