Claude de Jongh worked mainly in his native Utrecht, but also in England. It is presumed that he travelled to France (Rouen and Lyon) and to Italy (Rome). His paintings are rare and few of them are signed; ours is both signed and dated. His paintings are highly appreciated for their very personal, poetic mood.
