Dans la vie de Jacob Isaacksz. van Ruisdael
La vie entière1661
Possibly travels to Germany with Hobbema
In 1661 Ruisdael possibly crossed the German border again with Meindert Hobbema, travelling via the Veluwe, Deventer and Ootmarsum.
1668
Witness at the wedding of his pupil Meindert Hobbema
In 1668 Ruisdael witnesses the marriage of Meindert Hobbema, his only registered pupil. He himself never married — according to Houbraken, to reserve time to serve his old father.
1672
Still comfortable after the Disaster Year
There is no record of Ruisdael owning land or shares, yet he appears to have lived comfortably even after the downturn of the disaster year 1672: in inventories of 1650–1679 his paintings averaged 40 guilders against 19 for attributed paintings generally. The legend that he died poor in a Haarlem almshouse confuses him with his cousin Jacob Salomonszoon.
