Biography
According to Houbraken he painted a Danae for the Lord of Halsteren, Baljuw of Kennemerland, that was made famous by a poem by Joost van den Vondel.[1][2]
According to the RKD he was the son of the painter Gerrit Claesz Bleker and was a member of the Haarlem Guild of St. Luke.[3] His name, marked with a 'd', which meant 'dead before Vincent van der Vinne', was in the list of guild painters kept by Laurens van der Vinne after his father's death in 1702.[3]\
