Johannes Ykens (1613, Antwerp – after 1680), was a Flemish Baroque painter and wood sculptor. ==Biography== According to Houbraken, he was a flower painter along with Frans Ykens.〔 (Francois en Jan Eykens ) in ''De groote schouburgh der Nederlantsche konstschilders en schilderessen'' (1718) by Arnold Houbraken, courtesy of the Digital library for Dutch literature〕 According to Cornelis de Bie's work on painters called ''Het Gulden Cabinet'', however, which had been Houbraken's source, only Frans was a famed flower painter, and Jan was famous for being good at arranging subjects.〔 (Franchois Eyckens ende Ian Eyckens ) in Cornelis de Bie's 'Het Gulden Cabinet'', 1662, courtesy of Google books〕 He had first learned to draw as part of his training to become a sculptor, and he was a respected sculptor before becoming known for his paintings.〔〔 According to the RKD he was the son of sculptor Melchior Ykens and the father of the painters Catharina Ykens II and Peter Ykens.〔(Johannes Ykens ) in the RKD〕 He entered the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke in 1639 as ''winemaster'', meaning he was the son of a member.〔 His pupils besides his children were the sculptor Flups Tallaert, (1640–41), Lamberecht la Fosse (1641–42), Peeter van Opbergen (1645–46), and Jan-Battista van Neckens (1665–66).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Johannes Ykens」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
