During 40 years Jacob van Oost the Younger was active in Lille, a Flemish town 75 km S. of his birthplace Bruges, that had been conquered by King Louis XIV of France one year before our painter’s arrival there.
His interesting style is an international mixture of Flemish, French and Italian elements.
