| Buyer Notes | The buyer, who is often referred to as Dr. van der Hoeven without first name, paid a tax of 80 f. in 1631, at which time he lived on the Kaij van't Dolhuijs (Kohier, fol. 248v, p.57). Dr. Robbrecht van der Hoeve, who is almost certainly identical with the buyer, was the son of the famous Delft collector and brewer Aper van Hoeve (or Houve) (1543-1624), whose art collection was described by Arend van Buchell in 1597 and 1598. Robbrecht was the brother of Abraham Apersz. van der Houve (1576-1621), a history painter who spent some time in Rome before he joined the St. Lucas Guild in Delft (in or before 1613). Robbrecht was born in Delft on 29 December 1581, was inscribed as a student in medicine in Leiden in 1602, then studied further in Padua, where he graduated in 1604. He was Regent of the St. Jacobs Gasthuis (hospital) in Schiedam from 1615 to 1618, He was betrothed in Delft with Elisabeth Gerrits van der Wolff, 19 years old, on 18 July 1610. She was the daughter of Dirck Gerritsz. van der Wolff (of R 25510), alderman of Schiedam and Rotterdam, and of Lijsbeth Jans (Utenhage). (E.A.A.M. van der Hoeven et al, Bier en Water, De geschiedenis van een familie van der Hoeven ... Ons Voorgeslacht 56(2001 (part II), p. 49, with thanks to S. Middelhoek for the reference). On 9 April 1620, Robert van der Hoeve, from Delft, widower of Elisabeth van der Wolff, medicinae doctor, living in Rotterdam, was betrothed to Maria van Offenberck, 26, assisted by her mother Johanna van Ruyckhaver, living on the Coeleuvriersgracht (DTB 668/317). Maria was the daughter of Dirck van Offenberch, the second husband of Johanna van Loon, the sister of Hans van Loon (of R 7696). Dr. van der Hoeve was thus the nephew by marriage of the rich merchant Hans Willemsz. van Loon. Maria van Offenberch was the sister of Josyna van Offenberch, married to Pieter Assenburch, and of Johanna van Offenberch, married to Stefan Pelgrom (1582-1640) (Nederlandsche Leeuw 1917, pp. 19-20 and Maandblad Amstelodamum 62(1975), p. 135). On Steven Pelgrom (of INVNO 1204), see the TEXT of R 1223 of Montias1. On 14 August 1622, Dr. Verhoeven and his unnamed wife had their son Albert baptized in the Lutheran Church in the presence of Albert Frans and Janneke van [left blank] (perhaps Ruyckhaver, his mother-in-law) (DTB 138/324). On 19 January 1627, he had his daughter Willemken baptized in the same church in the presence of Pieter van Assenborch and Marij van der Hoeven (DTB 139/206). Marij van der Hoeve, the witness at the baptism of Willemken van der Hoeve, may be identical with Robbrecht's sister Maria Apers van der Houve, born about 1578, who married Sebastiaen Jansz. van Santen in 1614 and Hendrick Pietersz. Cheeuwen in 1622 and died in Delft on 8 June 1656 (Van der Hoeven, op. cit. p. 41). Pieter van Assenburch stood surety on an auction purchase of silverware by the silversmith Abraham van der Platsen, according to a deposition dated 27 June 1634 (see the NOTES to R 30408). On 16 November 1628, Robbrecht had his daughter Maria baptized in the Lutheran church in the presence of Hans van Lohn (Loon) and Soffija van Gosen (DTB 139/255). On 5 February 1640, Henrick Lambertsz. Heesels van Cleef, merchant in Rijssel (Lile) wares, assisted with Lambert Lambertsz. Heesels van Cleef, living in Utrecht, his father, Sr. Cornelis Koey and Robrecht van der Hoeven, his cousins, bridegroom-to-be, signed a pre-nuptial contract with the honorable Hilgont Wayers, bride-to-be, assisted by the heer Cornelis Jacobsz. Wayers, her brother, the honorable Jan Gerritsz. Meijer and Frans Kruijsbergen, alderman in Weesp, her uncles, and Reyer Pietersz. Elias (cited in the NOTES to R 7664 of Montias2), her nephew (NA 1768, fol. 2, Not. Nicolaes Henrixsz.) Cornelis Jacobsz. Wayer was a regent of the Burgerweeshuis around 1633 (kindly communicated by Sheila Muller). Maria van der Hoeve II married Mr. Arnout Hellemans Hooft, knight, on 25 May 1655. Arnout Hellemans Hooft, merchant on the Keizersgracht, became captain of the Amsterdam militia in 1662. Joost van den Vondel wrote a poem on the occasion of their wedding, which took place on 23 December 1628. Maria van der Hoeve was buried in Amsterdam on 6 June 1663. Arnout remarried on 15 March 1665 with Anna van Hoorn, daughter of Pieter Claesz. van Hoorn of INVNO 646 (Van der Hoeven, op. cit. p. 54). Robbert van der Hoeve signed the Remonstrant petition of 1628. In 1629, he was named as co-guardian of the minor children of Godart Kerckeringk (of R 21249), a prominent Lutheran merchant, whose wife Cornelia Hessels, was the half sister of Robbert's second wife Maria van Offenberch (Van der Hoeve, Ons Voorgeslacht 56(2001), p. 52). On 19 May 1633, Godert Kerckringh and Robbert van der Hoeve, freighters of the ship Neptunus, gave a procuration to Jacob Codde (of R 8318) to seize the salt that had been loaded on the ship, belonging to Pedro Henriques and Joao (Jan) Rodrigues Faro, Portuguese merchants (NA 668, map 28, fol. 1, Extracten). On 6 July 1635, he protested the failure of Lambert Woltrinx to pay a letter of credit (NA 642, fo. 19). In 1638, the poet and homme de lettres Caspar Barlaeus consulted Doctorum Verhoevium (letter to Jacobo Petitio, Oud Holland 6(1888), p. 257). In 1639, he wrote in a letter to Petitio that he had invited to his home (among his amicos selectiores), Doctorem Verhoevium, along with the satrap of Muiden (P.C. Hooft), Paolo de Willem (I, the father of Paolo de Willem de jonge of INVNO 197) and secretarios Mostartius et Realium (of R 21940 and R 7668 respectively) (ibid. p. 258). It is likely, therefore, that Dr. van der Hoeve was a member of the so-called Muiden circle. He must have been an outstanding collector. In his preface to the play Joseph in Dothan (1640), Joost Vondel wrote that the painting by Jan Pynas, Jacob Shown Joseph's Bloody Coat of 1618 hung in the house of Doctor Robbert Verhoeven along with meer kunstige stucken (other artful pieces) by Lastman (cited in Amy Golahny, Pieter Lastman in the Literature: From Immortality to Oblivion in Dutch Crossings 20(1996), p. 90). Robbrecht van der Hoeve died on 19 April 1641 and was buried in the N.K. on 24 April of the same year (Van der Hoeven, op. cit. p. 49). In May 1647, the widow of Robert van der Hoeve was invited the 50th wedding anniversary of Hans van Loon (cited above) and of Anna Ruyckhaver. A daughter, named Johanna, married Cornelis Cloeck in 1656. He was the son of Pieter Jansz. Cloeck (of R 32463) and of Johanna Cornelis Hooft, the sister of P.C. Hooft (Van der Hoeven, loc. cit.) Pieter Cloeck, the chief attorney for Rembrandt at the time of his bankruptcy at the time of the marriage in 1656, links Van der Hoeve, at least indirectly, to Rembrandt. The son of Robbrecht van der Hoeve, named Aper Robbertusz., born on 9 August 1622, studied in Padua, and became an attorney in Amsterdam. He died on 7 December 1667 (Van der Hoeven, op. cit. p. 53). | |
