German printmaker, painter and draughtsman Hendrik Goltzius was born in 1558 in what was then known as the North Rhine-Westphalia. He was one in a long line of artists; his father, grandfather and great-grandfather were all also artists. Goltzius was one of the outstanding figures of the Dutch artworld in the 15th and 16th centuries; known for his sophisticated Mannerist engraving techniques within the early Baroque period, although he did start to produce paintings in the Middle Ages. He received international acclamation for his work, with esteemed patrons such as the notorious art lover Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II.
