Jan Siberechts

Flemish in England, ca. 1627 - ca. 1703
BiographyFlemish landscape painter active in England. Siberechts spent his early career in Antwerp, where he was made a master of the Guild of St. Luke in 1648. He was invited to England by George Villiers, 2nd Duke of Buckingham, and helped decorate the Duke's residence at Cliveden, Buckinghamshire, in 1672-73. After this he traveled widely and rapidly established himself as a painter of topographical "prospects" for the owners of English country houses and estates; some of the best known are the views of Longleat in Wiltshire that he painted in 1675-76, which remain at the house. Siberechts lived and worked in England for the rest of his career and played an important part in the development of British landscape painting.
