The Life of Erasmus de Bie
Born in Antwerp, Belgium, Erasmus de Bie was the son of the painter Frans de Bie the Elder. He began his artistic training as a pupil of David Ryckaert III in 1641 and later gained admission as a master in the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke during the period of 1645–1646. His professional life was deeply rooted in Antwerp, where he married Catharina Douglas, known as de Schot, and fathered two sons, Frans and Jan Baptist, both of whom pursued careers as painters.
De Bie's artistic legacy includes several pupils, such as his son Frans, who studied under him in 1660 and 1666. He passed away in Antwerp in 1675.
