Pieter van der Heyden (ca. 1530-ca. 1576) – His father Jan was a glassmaker/artist and graphics dealer in Antwerp; his brother Karel also dealt with printmaking and in 1545 acquired the printing press of Cornelis Bor. That same year Karel died and Pieter inherited the inventory and equipment. He worked primarily as a reproductive printmaker, copying and distributing images from the paintings of better-known European artists. In 1571 he is known to have been living in the village of Berchem near Antwerp in a house rented by the famous publisher Christopher Plantin, for whom Van der Heyden produced illustrations and frontispieces. He is presumed to have died there during the so-called Spanish Fury of 1576.
