Oil on lined canvas (45.5 x 55 cm), signed 'H.G.' lower right (difficult to read), gilded frame
Very little is known about de Heusch's life and training. De Heusch was born and died in Utrecht. He likely studied with Jan Both as he later painted entirely in Both's style. Nothing certain is recorded of him except that he presided over the gild of Utrecht, whilst Cornelis Poelenburg, Jan Both and Jan Weenix formed the council of that body, in 1649. Ref. W. Bernt, Netherlandish Painters of the 17th c., II, p. 55. Provenance: Belgium private collection. Certificate: Delerive, Lille (22.10.1976)
