In a fine Louis XIII-style frame
Jan van Duyts was a Flemish painter born in Antwerp and a pupil of the portraitist Frans
Denys (1610–1670). He specialised in history painting,
religious and mythological compositions, as well as portraiture.
He is notably mentioned by Cornelis de Bie in his *Het Gulden Cabinet* (1662),
for his talent and his compositions.
His work remains largely unknown today. A composition signed
and dated 1671 is notably reproduced in a gallery painting by
Gonzales Coques, held at the Museum of the Royal Palace of Łazienki in Warsaw.
