Derweil im Leben von Hendrick Goltzius
Das ganze Leben1575
Apprenticeship with Dirck Coornhert
His father placed Hendrick as an apprentice to the philosopher, theologian and engraver Dirck Volckertszoon Coornhert, then working in Xanten, so that his son could master the art of engraving.
1577
Move to Haarlem
He followed Coornhert to Haarlem, where he remained for the rest of his life. There the publisher Philips Galle hired him to engrave a series of prints on the story of Lucretia; in the following years Goltzius engraved after the designs of other artists for Coornhert and for Antwerp publishers.
