About Herman Henstenburgh
Lived 1667 – 1726 (aged 59). Herman Henstenburgh was a Dutch painter.
Herman Henstenburgh (1667–1726) was an 18th-century painter from the Dutch Republic.
Biography He was born and died in Hoorn. According to Johan van Gool he was very good at copying prints and copied the watercolours of Pieter Holstein, which were so good that his parents let him become a pupil of Johannes Bronkhorst in 1683. Bronckhorst was able to live by his paintings, but supplemented his income with his work on the side as pastrybaker until his death, and Henstenburgh clearly learned this business from him as well, because he took over this business when Bronckhorst died.
