LINTHORST, Jacobus
(b. 1745 Amsterdam, d. 1815 Amsterdam)
Dutch painter. He appears to have spent his entire life in his native Amsterdam and is recorded there as a member of the Guild of Saint Luke from 1789. He was the teacher of the still life painter Jan Evert Morel (1769-1808).
While little is known of Linthorst’s artistic training, his bright palette and opulent compositions clearly reflect the influence of Jan van Huysum and his contemporary Jan van Os.
