ABOUT







Dutch penmen of the 17th century

The seventeenth century saw The Netherlands flourish in all respects, after the fall of Antwerp in 1585. Between 1590 and 1650, teachers and professionals taught and developed penmanship in the Low Countries---Penneconste in old Dutch. The most talented of them was Jan van den Velde. Others included Lucas Fopsz Lely, Abraham van Overbeke, Maria Strick and Felix van Sambix.
