"Crispijn de Passe the Younger (ca. 1594-1670) attended the Utrecht drawing school founded in 1614 and led by Paulus Moreelse and Abraham Bloemaert. He and his siblings contributed a variety of religious prints and works on other themes published by their father, Crispijn di Passe the Elder. Expanding the family business internationally, Crispijn the Younger went to Paris in 1618, while his brothers Willem and Simon worked in London. By 1629 Crispijn was back in Utrecht. After his father's death in 1637 he moved the firm's headquarters to Amsterdam. Difficulties ensued, and by 1645 he was confined to a mental hospital in Delft. Though Crispijn did resume printmaking and publishing in succeeding years, he was forever after pursued by financial problems and died in poverty in 1670."
