Alexander Keirincx[1][2] (Antwerp, 23 January 1600 – Amsterdam, 1652) was a Flemish landscape painter who is known for his wooded landscapes with figures as well as his 'portraits' of English castles and country houses. After training in his native Antwerp, he worked in Utrecht and ultimately to Amsterdam in the Dutch Republic.[2] During a period of sojourn in England in the late 1630s he worked on commissions for the English king.[3] He was a regular collaborator of Cornelis van Poelenburch.[4]
