Everything about Joachim Von Sandrart totally explained

Joachim von Sandrart (May 12, 1606 - October 14, 1688) was a German art-historian and painter.

Biography

Sandrart was born in Frankfurt, but the family originated from Mons. After studying in Germany, he travelled to Utrecht. In 1625 he became a pupil of Gerrit van Honthorst, in 1627 visited by Rubens. When Honthorst was invited to England, Sandrart was his companion. After 1629 Sandrart journeyed to Italy, where he became famous as a portrait-painter. In 1637 he subsequently revisited Holland and in 1645 settled in Nuremberg, there he lived out the remainder of his life. His 1649 painting Peace-Banquet now sits in Nuremberg's town hall.
   He is best known as an author of books on art, some of them in Latin, and especially for his historical work, the Deutsche Akademie (1675-1679), of which there's a more recent edition by Sponsel (1896).
   He published the German artist Mathis Gothart's first biographical study, and in the process of doing so bestowed on the artist the incorrect name Grünewald, by which he's now popularly known.
