He worked for an elite clientele and was a regular collaborator of leading Antwerp painters such as Anthony van Dyck and Peter Paul Rubens De Vos was born in Hulst near Antwerp, now in the Dutch province of Zeeland. Little is known of his childhood. His father moved with his family to Antwerp in 1596 In 1604 Paul de Vos became a pupil of the obscure painter Denijs van Hove in Antwerp. In 1605 he continued his studies under the little-known painter David Remeeus (1559–1626) with whom his older brother Cornelis also trained. He later also trained with the equally obscure Eduard Snayers. De Vos became a master and joined the guild of St. Luke at a late age in 1620, probably because he had initially trained and worked in the workshop of his brother-in-law Frans Snyders who had married his sister Margaretha in 1611 Paul de Vos married Isabella Waerbeek, a notary's daughter, on 15 Nov 1624 and the couple had 10 children.[1] Peter Paul Rubens was the godfather of one of their sons named Peter Paul born in 1628. The de Vos family prospered and were able to make important investments in real estate in Antwerp De Vos enjoyed the patronage of influential aristocrats in Spain such as the marquis the Leganes, head of the Council of Flanders in Madrid and Philippe-Charles, 3rd Count of Arenberg, then residing in Madrid.[4] From the latter he obtained a commission to paint at least 36 paintings of birds, hunts and fables between 1633 and 1640. In 1637-1638 he worked on the decorations for the Spanish royal residences, Buen Retiro and Torre de la Parada. Most of the decorations at the Torre de la Parada involving animal scenes without humans were by his hand. The governor of the Governor of the Spanish Netherlands Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand visited his workshop He had two pupils: Alex Daemps in 1627 and Lancelot van Daelen in 1636 These are a very good looking and well made suite of frames, they have the usual patina marks as you would expect, the gilding has no doubt been touched up over the years, I can see ware around some of the edges The mirrors are all brand new, in perfect condition and with large bevels around the edge, they look blue in the pictures but that's just the sky above reflecting in them Dimensions Height:- 129cm Width:- 177.5cm Depth:- 7cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements please ask.
