View of Landscape with Shepherds Pieter de Molijn (London, April 6, 1595-Haarlem, March 23, 1661) Oil on canvas, measurements: 140 x 100 cm, measurements with frame: 164 x 120 cm. Pieter de Molijn (London, April 6, 1595-Haarlem, March 23, 1661) was a Dutch painter and engraver of the Baroque period, specialized in the landscape genre. He sometimes collaborated with Frans Hals. He was born in London into a Flemish family. His parents came from Ghent and Brussels; It is assumed that they emigrated to England for work reasons. Little is known about the artist's early years. It is believed that he undertook a journey to Italy before 1616, when he entered the guild of Saint Luke of Haarlem. Unfortunately, there are no known works dated before 1625. Between 1616 and 1627 he lived in Delft, where he married in 1624 and had seven children. He settled permanently in Haarlem and died there. He was a socially recognized figure, and thus, he was a member of the city's Civic Guard on three occasions (1624, 1627 and 1630). Bibliography: Biography of Pieter Molyn included in De groote schouburgh der Nederlantsche konstschilders en schilderessen (1718), written by Arnold Houbraken, included in the Digital library for Dutch literature.
