The whole life

  1. until 1625

    Decides to become an artist after his family’s ruin

    After his family was financially ruined by the Sack of Prague in the Thirty Years’ War, the young Hollar, who had been destined for the legal profession, decided to become an artist.

    Meets the Earl of Arundel

    The famous nobleman and art collector Thomas Howard, 21st Earl of Arundel, then on a diplomatic mission to the imperial court of Emperor Ferdinand II, takes notice of him. Hollar is employed as a draftsman.

    In 1637 he goes with Arundel to England, where he remains in the earl’s household for many years.

  4. 1643–1644
