"Amsterdam artist Willem Schellinks (1623-1678) took two formative trips south in the course of his career. He traveled to France with fellow artist Lambert Doomer in 1646 and, upon his return to the Netherlands, began creating works with Italianate subjects. From 1661 to 1665 he went abroad a second time, to Italy. In Rome, he became a member of the Schildersbent, a society of Northern European artists who used the Roman Campagna, particularly antique ruins, as the subject of their works."
