Steven van Herwijck

Steven van Herwijck by Antonis Mor, 1564. Now in the Mauritshuis, The Hague.

Steven Cornelisz. van Herwijck (Utrecht c. 1530–London 1565/67), was a Netherlandish sculptor and gem engraver famous for his portrait medallions and medals. He spent two periods of his career in England, where he died. It has recently been suggested that he is the "famous paynter Steven" mentioned in an inventory of 1590, who has traditionally been identified as Steven van der Meulen.[1][2][3][4]
