Hendrick Goltzius (1558-1617) was a Dutch graphic artist and painter. He was born in Bracht, Germany, but spent most of his life in the Netherlands. Goltzius is best known for his engravings, which are highly detailed and often depict mythological or biblical subjects. He was also a successful painter, producing portraits, landscapes and historical scenes. Goltzius was a leading figure in the Dutch Mannerist movement, which emphasised elegance and refinement in art. His work was a major influence on later artists, including Rembrandt and Rubens.
