Adam van Noort

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adam van Noort (1561/2, Antwerp – 1641, Antwerp) was a Flemish painter and draughtsman. He was the teacher to both Peter Paul Rubens and Jacob Jordaens, the latter of whom became his son-in-law. Van Noort was dean of the Guild of St. Luke from 1597 until 1602. He collaborated with Marten de Vos on the decorations for the Joyous Entry of Archduke Ernest of Austria in 1594, and painted numerous small paintings of religious subjects.
