According to the RKD, Van Schooten was the son of a leading Catholic family of Amsterdam who came to live in Haarlem in 1612. During that period, many Catholic families left Amsterdam where the Protestants had the upper hand in local government, for Haarlem, where the climate for Catholicism was more tolerant.

Together they had 3 daughters and a son Johannes, who also became a painter Related Paintings of Floris van Schooten :. | Saint Augustin | Agony | Pan Qiadi wonderful portrait | Chloris A Summer Rose | Nativity d | Related Artists:
