Jacob Campo Weyerman
Jacob Campo Weyerman (9 August 1677 - 9 March 1747)〔(Weyerman, Jacob Campo ) at the Netherlands Institute for Art History〕 was an eccentric painter and writer during the period known as the Dutch Enlightenment. His work encompassed flower and fruit still life paintings, satirical magazines, plays, and biographies of painters. He usually signed his paintings Campovivo.
==Biography==
As tradition holds, he was born in a military camp outside Charleroi, where his father fought in the Dutch army against the French. His mother was a very independent woman of Scottish descent, Elisabeth Sommeruell, who kept a ''market tent'' in Charleroi and eventually was able to afford a house in the center of Breda. There he was taught in the arts and on reaching his majority, traveled to London in 1704 and found work at the academy of Godfried Kneller. He specialized in the painting of flowers and fruit. According to Arnold Houbraken, he was a member of the Bentvueghels with the nickname ''Compaviva'', but this may be a mistake. Though Weyerman was known for his embellishments of the truth, he never boasted about the Italian ''bent''. Houbraken may have confused him with Jakob Christoph Weyermann, a German painter active in Augsburg in the first half of the 17th century. In 1720 he returned to the Netherlands and started a periodical called ''Hermes''.
He wote prose in a colorful style, and could flatter as easily as he offended his contemporaries.〔(J. Weyerman biography ) in ''De groote schouburgh der Nederlantsche konstschilders en schilderessen'' (1718) by Arnold Houbraken, courtesy of the Digital library for Dutch literature〕 Jacob Campo Weyerman is not only interesting to modern readers for his literary qualities, but also as a source for historians on cultural life in the 18th century. Especially his magazines give a glimpse of daily life in Dutch taverns, coffee houses, and tourist attractions of his day.
