Life

Jan Baptist van der Hulst received his training at the Art Academy in Leuven as a student of the Flemish painter Josse Pierre Geedts . Subsequent study trips took him to Paris in 1819 and to Rome from 1825 to 1827. When Wilhelm I of the Netherlands was appointed to his court, van der Hulst moved to The Hague in 1830 , where he worked as an artist for nineteen years. Only after the death of Wilhelm II did he return to his Belgian homeland in 1849.

Van der Hulst mainly painted portraits and religious representations. One of his earliest works was the partial representation of the " Host Miracle " from a series of images in the church of Sint Jacob in Leuven. The portrait paintings are almost all privately owned and in the The Hague palaces Paleis Noordeinde and Huis ten Bosch . Also in the Museum Het Loo near Apeldoorn , in the Amsterdam Rijksmuseum and in the Museum De Lakenhal in Leiden .
