Willem Schellinks (1627–1678), was a Dutch Golden Age landscape painter.
Biography
He traveled to France with Lambert Doomer in 1646.[1] After that he undertook another journey in 1661-1665 as the guide of Heere Jakob Thierry de Jong, a young gentleman on his Grand Tour.[2] According to Houbraken, Schellinks compiled his drawings and notes about this last journey in three volumes, that weren't published, but which he kept for friends to read. The painter-engraver Arnoud Van Halen (1673–1732) acquired these volumes and Houbraken was granted permission to read through them himself.[3]
This trip included visits to England, France, Italy, Sicily, Malta, Germany, and Switzerland; copies of his travel journals are in the Royal Library of Copenhagen, and the originals are in the National Library of Vienna.[2] They form an important record of the conditions of travel in the 17th century. Schellinks journals of his first trip with Doomer were not read or commented on by Houbraken, because he probably didn't know they existed. They are kept in the Fondation Custodia in Paris, the foundation started by Frits Lugt.[1]
