Hubertus van Hove
1814 - 1865
Born on 3 May 1814 in The Hague where he studied at the Academy under his father, Bartholomeus Johannes van Hove (1790-1880), and Hendrik van de Sande Bakhuyzen. In 1854 he moved to Antwerp where he worked with Leys. His earlier work included landscapes, but he turned increasingly to seventeenth-century interior scenes reminiscent of de Hooch. He died in Antwerp on 14 November 1865.
