j van de velde wielrenster - Born into an artistic family, Jan van de Velde II — was encouraged to develop his talent in an inspirational and supportive creative environment. Van de Velde's parents moved to Rotterdam a few years prior to his birth, but later relocated to Haarlem where Jan "the younger" would learn skill in many forms of art. He, along with brother Willem and cousin Esaias van de Velde, developed his craft in Haarlem. His father, a master calligrapher, had strong intentions for Jan to be taught by a draughtsman.
Jan van de Velde - Enkhuizenwas een Nederlands kunstschildertekenaar en bovenal prentkunstenaar uit de periode van de Gouden Eeuw. Er zijn bronnen die aangeven dat Jan een broer was van Esaias van de Velde [1]. Aannemelijker is het echter dat hij een neef van hem was. Van de Velde werd geboren in Rotterdam of Delft.
