Cornelis Meyssens
Cornelis Meyssens belongs to the tradition of seventeenth-century reproductive printmaking, working primarily as an engraver whose plates circulated the compositions of other masters. His surviving output centres on religious subjects, among them the martyrdom of Saint Lawrence. The archive holds a single sheet by him, an engraving issued as a reverse copy and dated in the collection's records to 1640. That lone impression represents the entirety of his presence here, so the holdings offer only a narrow glimpse of his activity.
