Who is Ferdinand van Apshoven the Elder?

Ferdinand van Apshoven, 'the elder,' is recorded to have been baptized at Antwerp, on 17 May 1576. In 1592-93 he entered the atelier of Adam van Noort, and in 1596-97 he was free of the Guild of Painters of that city. He was both an historical painter and a portraitist; but no work by him exists. That he was successful as a teacher in art is evident, for the records of the Guild mention seven pupils of his. He died in 1654 or 1655.
