| Buyer | Salomon de Vogel de jonge |
| Buyer Family | Vogel, Salomon de, de jonge (II) |
| Buyer Notes | Salomon de Vogel de jonge (II) was the son of Salomon de Vogel de oude (I) and of Lambertje Lamberts. Salomon de Vogel I died before 19 January 1636 when his widow appeared in a notarial act (see below). On 14 January 1622, Salomon de Vogel de jonge, from Haarlem, 27 years old, assisted by his father Salomon de Vogel de oude, living on the N.Z. Voorburgwal, was betrothed to Lysbeth Jans, 21 (DTB 669/65). In 1628, Salomon de Vogel I (?) lived tegen over de Nieuwe Appelmarkt. It was probably Salomon de Vogel I who protested a letter of exchange (and was thus a merchant) on 19 May 1617 (Winkelman, Bronnen voor de geschiedenis van de Nederlandse Oostzeehandel, R.G.P., 186(1983), p. 720.) On 25 February 1625, Salomon de Vogel (II?) bought spices in the sale of such goods belonging to Pieter Mercijs. His surety was Hendrick Brouwer. A deposition made in Utrecht on 15 May 1631 by the painter Hercules Seghers asserted that 44 of his paintings were deposited with (berustende onder) Sr. Salomon de Vogel (probably II) (J. Briels, Vlaamse schilders, p. 383.) On 15 July 1631, Salomon de Vogel II, 37, sworn broker, made a deposition concerning an incident that occurred in the inn of Pieter Meuleman (of R 27200), De Keyserscroon, at the request of Jonckheer Balthasar de Rubo van Becken (NA 371, fol. 138, Not. W. Cluyt). On 24 November 1632, Salomon de Vogel, sworn broker, 38, declared at the request of the merchant Jan Ambrosius that he had sold a house to Hendrick (Willem) Brouwer (cited above as his surety) on behalf of Aechjen Hendricks, wife of Harmen Hendricksz. Block (NA 372, Not. W. Cluyt). Hendrick Brouwer, born about 1585, died before 10 May 1642, when his widow Cecilia van Dorp insinuated Ghysbert Schouten concerning the house op 't Water. where the sign of the Valck hangs, which had been leased, under the supervision of Salomon de Vogel (II), to Schouten (NA 997, film 1228, Not. Gerrit Coren). Hendrick Brouwer was a dealer in spices and a sugar refiner (in 1611). He had apparently been married earlier with Agnieta Pelser (Nederlandsche Leeuw 73(1956) col. 342 and the NOTES to R 20564 and Poelwijk, In dienste vant suyckerbacken, p. 256). On 14 March 1636, Sara Reyniers, widow of Hendrick Coenen, together with her son and guardian Coenraet van Ceulen (the former husband of Elisabeth van Limburgh of INVNO 248), and Lambertje Lamberts, widow of Salomon de Vogel (I), assisted by Salomon de Vogel (II), her stepson, came to an agreement regarding the house where Sara Reyniers was presently living. It was agreed that Lambertje Lamberts would come to live with her (NA 991, fol. 6, Not. J. Bosch). On 12 June 1636, Salomon de Vogel II, 41, sworn broker, and Dirck Martsen, 60, lynpacker (who probably owned a warehouse where linen goods were stored), testified concerning a dispute over linen goods (NA 521, film 6505, Not. Westfrisius). On 5 January 1638, Salomon de Vogel II, 43, and Matthijs van Geleijn, 47, both brokers, together with Mattheus Bonten, porter at the Weighting Station (waeghdrager), declared in a deposition made at the request of Sr.Jullien Lanson, merchant, that they had seen a quantity of baskets (corven) in the attic of the petitioner (Lanson) (N.A. 417, film 6434). On 24 July 1635, Jullian Lanson declared having received a cargaison of mirrors from Venice, only one of which was in good condition (NA 412A, fol 57). Jullian Lanson was the uncle by marriage of the children of Jan Jansz. goldsmith and predikant, who died in Guinea (WK 5073/513, fol. 48vo.) On 27 October 1627, Jullien Lanson had Jean Moreau, 17, apprenticed to Gerrit Verpoorten de jonge, drogist, for four years. On 9 February 1631, Jullien Lanson signed a contract by which he undertook to buy a house and a pottery works from Jan van Cruyskercken for the sum of 900 f. (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.P.G. 78(1933), pp. 638 and 746). On Gerrit Verpoorten de jonge, see the NOTES to R 27491. On 24 February 1656, Salomon de Vogel II appeared before the Orphan Chamber on behalf of the children of Jan de Vogel (along with Catharina de Vogel married to Joost Pluijmer) (WK 5073/789). Salomon de Vogel II was buried in the N.Z.K. on 24 July 1657 (DTB 1068/10). He died in his house the Zwarte Vos on the West side of the Calverstraet. The house was then leased by Clement de Jonghe, the print- and art-dealer (I. van Eeghen, Rembrandt en de veilingen Maandblad Amstelodamum, 1985, p. 58). |

| Buyer | Anthonij Nijs |
| Buyer Family | Nijs, Anthonij (II) |
| Buyer Notes | Anthonij Nijs II was the son of Anthonij Nijs I, born in Arquennes in 1544 and died in Antwerp in 1623. His mother Anna Lamson was the second of his father's three wives. He was born in 1591 and died in Amsterdam in 1649 (I. van Eeghen, Het geslacht Nijs Jaarboek Amstelodamum 60(1968), pp.100-1). In 1616, Anthonij Nijs (II), bound himself (sich besteedde) as a disciple of the fencing master Cornelis van Heusden (De la Fontaine Verwey, Jaarboek Amstelodamum 69(1977), p. 26). On 2 March 1617, Anthony Nijs I gave permission to his daughter Anna to marry Daniel Gabry, son of Jean Gabry I. The wedding took place in the house of Jean Leschevin (probably of R 29988). In the pre-nuptial contract, three brothers-in-law of Anna Nijs were cited: Jan van Gansepoel, Nicolaes Cocques, and Francois du Gardin. Jan van Gansepoel (cited in the TEXT of R 516 of Montias1) married Judith Gabry, the sister of Daniel Gabry, on 7 April 1604. He was assisted by his brother-in-law Lenaert Luls. He was from Emden and she from Doornik (Nederlandsche Leeuw 27(1960), col. 274). Nicolaes Coques (of R 20336) was married to Anna Gabry, another sister of Daniel Gabry. Francois de Gardin may have been married to a third sister of the bridegroom-to-be. In 1617, Anthonij Nijs witnessed, as a deacon and elder of the Waalse Kerck, the marriage of Anna Leschevin (the sister of Jean Leschevin of R 29988) (Gelderblom, Zuid-Nederlandse kooplieden, p. 212). According to I. van Eeghen, he was the cousin of Jean Leschevin (op. cit. p. 85). On 18 March 1623, Anthonij Nijs, from Antwerp, 32 years old, was betrothed to Maria Costers, also from Antwerp, formerly married to Harmen Schorer, daughter of Guilliam Costers and Louisa Lampson (DTB 427/448). Anthonij was in business with his brother Jacques Nijs (of R 7709) from 1621 until 1624 when differences arose over Jacques's handling of money matters for the firm (I. van Eeghen, op. cit. p. 91) On 15 April 1624, the brothers submitted their differences to four good men including Paulus Emtinck (I), the father of Paulus Emtinck (II) of INVNO 104; Cornelis Wilmerdoncx, who was married to Cathaline Leschevin, the sister of Jean Leschevin; and Jean Leschevin (of R 29988). Cornelis Wilmerdoncx, who died before 27 July 1637, was the father of Abraham Wilmerdoncx, whose portrait was painted by Rembrandt. (On the relation between Abraham and Cornelis and on the death of the former, see NA 643, fol. 150, 27 July 1637). They resolved that Jacques had to pay his brother Anthony 100 pounds vl. (Van Eeegen, op.cit. p.89). The purchase of this lot may be connected to the move that Anthonij Nijs made from his hoffstede in Otterenburgh, where he had had a house built, to a house on the Keizersgracht, next to Coster's Academie, on 7 April 1628. On 15 April 1624, his son, also christened Anthonij (III), was baptized in the French (Reformed) Church in the presence of Daniel Gabry, Pieter Boddens I (INVNO 380), and Petronella Sijdt (Oud Holland, 3(1885), p. 228.) On Daniel Gabry, see the act below. In that same year 1624, Antonij Nijs became adelborst (cadet) in the militia company of Captain Harencarspel (Van Eeghen, op.cit. p. 91). Anthonij Nijs bought flower bulbs on 25 September 1626 at the sale of the bulbs left by Pieter Pietersz. tuynman (WK 5073/952). A sale of porceleijne was held at his request on 11 October 1626, on the Dam on the corner of the Beursstraet. Many buyers of art at auction bought at this sale (13 out of a total 26 buyers). He is also known to have operated a wax-bleaching establishment (wasblekerij). In 1630, the brothers Anthonij and Jacques Nijs were hard hit by the bankruptcy of their brother Jean (1583-1643) (Van Eeghen, op. cit. p. 100). On 15 March 1638, Daniel Gabry, as father and unique heir of his daughter Lijsbeth Gabry, transferred 2,071 f. to Jan Nijsz., the uncle of his daughter, which had been inherited from the late Anthonij Nijs (I), pursuant to a declaration of Jan Nijs, dated 13 September 1633 (NA 522, film 4861, Not. Westfrisius). Daniel Gabry, a merchant and silk cloth dealer of South Netherlandish origin, born about 1591, the son of Jan Gabry I, who had lived in Cologne, was first noted in Amsterdam in 1617. He was married to Anna Nijs, the sister of Anthonij and Jacques Nijs, who died before 6 August 1626, when Jacques Nijs was named guardian over the minor children of the late Anna Nijs and of Daniel Gabry (WK 5073/513, fol. 46vo., Gelderblom, Zuid-Nederlandse kooplieden, p. 301, and Gelderblom, Prosopographic Data Base). For the testament of Daniel Gabry and Anneken Nijs, dated 24 September 1624, citing their children Anthonij, Elisabeth, and Anneken Gabry, see NA 389, fol. 143-4). Daniel Gabry remarried with Sara van de Brende (or Bremden) in 1626 (Van Eeghen, loc.cit.) Sara van de Brende was probably related to Daniel van den Bremden (of R 31208) or to one of his numerous relatives. |

| Buyer | Hendrick Broun |
| Buyer Family | Broun (Broen), Hendrick |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer Hendrick Broun (or Broen) was a merchant dealing in imported wine and was at one time pachter (farmer) of the excise on wine (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven, R.G.P. 78(1933), p.544.) Hendrick Broen, born in Frankenthal, came from Antwerp to Amsterdam where he settled at the end of the 16th century. He owned the hofstede of Borssenburgh. In a deposition dated August 1637 (exact date illegible), he was said to be 44 years old. The deposition concerned the disputed accounts of Abraham Maccare of INVNO 549 (NA 890, film 595). Hendrick Broen married Anna van Uffelen, the daughter of Hans van Uffelen I (of R 30510) and Agnieta van Liesvelt, on 16 June 1602. Anna died on 12 July 1633 (Elias, Vroedschap, p.465.) In 1608, he signed a petition to the burgomasters of Amsterdam along with a number of merchants requesting the revocation of the prohibition on the use of cashiers to effect money transactions (Van Dillen, Wisselbanken, R.G.P. 59(1925), p. 16). On 16 July 1619, Hendrick Broen and Jacques Ruts (cited in R 35074) signed an agreement regarding a disputed inheritance from Hans Ruts (NA 200, film 111, Not. J.F. Bruyning). In 1620, Hendrick Broen, together with his brother-in-law Jacques van Uffelen (of R 7706) and Gillis Dodeur (of R 29979), waged a suit against Paulus Gansepoel(I), who died in 1625 (see the NOTES to R 29979.) On 31 October 1621, Franchoijs Venant (I) of INVNO 500, 72, Abraham Cabeljau, 50, Hans Pietersz., also 50, Nicolaes Bruins, 40, and Thomas Jacobsz., 38, all bookkeepers, declared at the request of Hans Prince, merchant in Rotterdam, that they had inspected the accounts of Hendrick Broen for 1618 and found them to be correct (NA 255, fol. 158vo.) Hendrick Broen was a director of the W.I.C. (Extracts from Notulen of W.I.C. in Algemeen Rijksarchief). For a deposition made at his request, as a former farmer of the tax on wine, on 29 August 1624, see the NOTES to R 27378. Hendrick Broen, living on the O.Z. Voorburgwal, bought lots for 3 f. 12 st. in the Haarlem lottery of 1606 (GAA, 138/37 F1002). He was still living there in 1631 when he paid a tax of 400 f. (Kohier, p. 55). In 1613, Hans van Uffelen II, the son of Hans van Uffelen I of R 30510, who was still a bachelor, left the bulk of his possessions to Hendrick Broen and to his wife Anna van Uffelen (Hans's sister) by reason of their hospitality (see the NOTES to R 30510). On 13 January 1638, Jacques Catton, caffaworker, 62, and two other deponents made a deposition at the request of Adam Broen. Catton declared that 17 years ago, on Three Kings' Day, his daughter Margritgen had wed Adam Broen in the W.K. and that Adam Broen had many times said to him that Hendrick Broen, living on the O.Z. Voorbugwal [as he did in 1631], near the Princehoff, was his [biological] father who had helped to bring him up and had him learn to read and write. He had assisted Adam Broen and his daughter many times in their destitution (armoede). Another deponent, Marritie Harmens, said that she had taken care of Adam Broen for six months in his last illness and that Adam's oldest daughter had fetched four schellingen from Hendrick Broen each Sunday afternoon. Some time before his death, Adam Broen had sent her to the house of Hendrick Broen and complained to his [legitimate] son and the sister of Hendrick Broen's wife that the house of Adam Broen was so poor that there was no clean linen to change to (geen verschooning voor hen was). So it followed that Hendrick Broen sent to the house of Adam Broen two shirts ad a bottle of wine together with the four schellingen (NA 1186, fol. 2, Not. J. de Vos) At the time of his death, in 1639, Hendrick Broen and his wife left assets valued at 160,000 f. Hendrick Broen was the nephew of Bonaventuer Broen, the Nantes-based merchant cited in the NOTES to R 21230. On 25 November 1637, Albert van Bruegel, 52, at the request of the honorable Hendrick Broen, cited prices of Brazilian sugar (NA 695B, Not. J. Warnaerts). Albert van Bruegel was a cashier for the W.I.C. |

| Buyer | Jan Engels |
| Buyer Family | Engels (Ingel, Ingels), Jan |
| Buyer Notes | Jan (Reyniersz.) Engels (c. 1587-after 1654), at whose request the goods in the present sale were sold, was a prominent attorney with a long practice in Amsterdam (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 78(1933), p.377.) His father Mr. Reynier Ingel was also for many years an advocate in Amsterdam. In a deposition dated 1 December 1618, mr. Jan Engel, attorney, was said to be 27 years old (NA 200, film 111, Not. J.F. Bruyning). Jan Engel was said to be a poeta insignis, a friend of P.C. Hooft and probably a member of the famous literary circle of the Muiderkring. A Roman Catholic, he was married to Cunera van Veen, daughter of the Raedsheer Mr. Simon van Veen, in 1617 (J.F.M. Sterck, De Sergeant Reynier Engelen op Rembrandts Naghtwacht, Oud Holland, 15(1907), pp. 66-68). In the death inventory of Gillis van Conincxloo of 19 January 1607, a note pointed out that 15 paintings with animals were at the house of Simon van Veen, advocaat fiscaal van Holland (Oud Holland 3(1885), p. 43). P.G. Hooft, in a letter written to Anthony Duijck, under order of the Gecommitteerde Raden in The Hague, in which he responded to Duijck's complaint that Remonstrant conventicles were held in a house in Anckeveen (in the vicinity of Muiden), pointed out that the house in question belonged to the advocate Jan Ingel, son of the late Reynier Ingel, and that Mr. Simon van Veen spent the summers there, together with Jan Vechtersz., the husband of his (Van Veen's) sister, who lived there the year long. Since these were all Roman Catholic, he (Hooft) could not understand how any Remonstrant conventicles could be held there (De briefwisseling van Pieter Corneliszoon Hooft, H.W. van Tricht, ed. vol. 1, Culemborch, 1976, p. 263). Jan Vechtersz. was perhaps the son of Simon Jan Vechter of R 29713. In a procuration of 15 January 1635, Jan Jngels, advocaet, named his brother-in-law Hendrick van der Stock (probably of R 21265), living in Leyden, to sell a house that he owned in Leyden, which he had acquired from his sister Maritgen Reyniers (NA 863, Not. J. van Zwieten). In a procuration of 8 January 1638, he again named Hendrick Stock to sell a house he owned on the West side of The Hague, either directly or by auction (NA 867, fol. 10, Not. van Zwieten). Jan Engels made an appearance before the Weeskamer in 1637. In 1639, the equipage master of the Admiralty, named Henrick Hoochkamer, transferred a large sum to the Advocaet Joan Ingels, who is surely identical with the buyer (see INTRO to INVNO 482 in R 383 of Montias1). He is also likely to be identical with Mr. Jan Engelen, living on the N.Z. Wester Achterburchwal, who paid a tax of 80 f. in 1631, for himself and for the inheritance (Kohier, fol. 290, p. 67). On 7 January 1654, an inventory was taken of the possessions of the bankrupt advocate Jan Ingels, in his country house on the Vecht. It contained a painting of St. Jan by Rembrandt and a print of the Crucifixion also by Rembrandt (Strauss, Rembrandt Documents, p. 308.) Reynier Engels, the sergeant portrayed in Rembrandt's Nightwatch, was the son of Jan Enghels and Al Reyers. Since he was baptized on 19 January 1588, he is unlikely to have been the son of our buyer, married to Cunera van Veen, contrary to the assertion in the article by Sterck cited above (E.H. Haverkamp-Begemann, Rembrandt: The Nightwatch, Princeton, 1982, p. 29). He may have been the son of Mr. Jan Engels, arms maker, cited in the NOTES to R 32247. Reynier Engels is likely to be identical with the cloth dealer of that name, living on the Nieuwen Dijck (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 78(1933), pp. 237 and 603). A son of Jan Engels (advocate), named Simon, born in Amsterdam in 1618, and a law student in Leiden in 1640, was apparently in love with the young Anna Crombalchs, a daughter of the poet Maria Tesselschade Visschers, who died on 31 August 1647, and of Alaerd van Crombalch. He became consul of the Netherlands in Barcelona in 1660 (Sterck in Oorkonden over Vondel en zijn kring, Bussum, 1918, p, 177 and p. 186). |

| Buyer | Abraham Ostens op de Colck |
| Buyer Family | Ostens (Oostens), Abraham |
| Buyer Notes | On 31 July 1627, Abraham Ostens, from Middelburgh, spices merchant, 24, assisted by his uncle Willem Jansz., living in the St. Jacobstraet, was betrothed to Adriaentge Snoecx, 24, assisted by her sister Trijntge Snoecx (DTB 670/272). Willem Jansz. was probably the spices merchant of INVNO 277. Trijntge and Adriaentge Snoecx may have been the sisters of Hans Matthijsz. Snoeck, the son of Hans Matthijsz. of R 32516. In early November 1632 (date illegible), Dirck Jansz. Schellingen, skipper, and Claes Jacobsz. Coopel, 33, declared at the request of Abraham Ostens that, on 14 September last, they had gone with Ostens to the person of Pieter Harmensz. Bordijck. The conversation had turned on the return home of a ship from the West Indies. Pieter Harmensz. had bought an eighth part of the shipment from Ostens, to whom it belonged. Pieter Harmensz. had agreed to pay, giving his hand in agreement (NA 843, fol. 386, Not. Hoogeboom). Pieter Harmensz. may be identical with the individual of that name whose widow, named Hester Struijs, was cited on 6 March 1637 (see R 24536).
