Biography

According to Houbraken he travelled to Rome and joined the bentvueghels with the bentname Gulden Regen.[1] He signed Abraham Genoels bentbrief on 3 January 1675.[1][2]

According to the RKD he may have been the son of the Haarlem landscape painter Cornelis Gerritsz Decker.[2] He is known in Haarlem for his illustrations for Petrus Scriverius.[2][3]
