Biography

David was born in Amsterdam and moved to Rome at a young age where he would remain the rest of his life.[2] He worked with Dirk van Baburen in Rome on the decoration of the chapel of the Pietà in the church of San Pietro in Montorio (1617–20).[3] In 1619 and the spring of 1620 de Haen and van Baburen were living in the same house in the Roman parish of Sant'Andrea delle Fratte.[4] He was a follower of Caravaggio and painted religious and historical paintings[5]

gollark: Well, it's a shame there's no way to have some sort of controller system group together a bunch of floppies so they can be accessed as one peripheral.
gollark: Hmm.
gollark: How much data do OC floppies store? 1.44MB?
