Catharina van Knibbergen
Catharina Knibbergen was a Dutch Golden Age landscape painter.
Biography
According to the RKD she was influenced by Bartholomeus Breenbergh and was perhaps the daughter of the painter François van Knibbergen (born 1596/97).[1] However, in a 1634 poem Pieter Nootmans already called her the vermaarde kunstrijke schilderes ("famous artful painter") Juffrouw Catharina van Knibbergen, suggesting a birth in the 1610s at the latest.[2] The painter who married the wine merchant Lucas de Hen in 1643 in The Hague was not Catharina Knibbergen, as the RKD suggests, but Catharina van der Snap.[2][3]
In 1660 she was a member of Confrerie Pictura and various landscapes signed by her have turned up in period inventories in The Hague.[1]
