KONINCK (1619-1688)  , Dutch landscape painter, was born in Amsterdam in 1619 . Little is known of his history, except that he was a pupil of Rembrandt, whose influence is to be seen in all his work . He painted chiefly broad sunny landscapes, full of space, light and atmosphere . Portraits by him, somewhat in the manner of Rembrandt, also exist; there are examples of these in the galleries at Copenhagen and Christiania . Of his landscapes the principal are " Vue de ('embouchure d'une riviere," at the Hague; a slightly larger replica is in the National Gallery, London; " Lisiere d'un boil," and " Paysage " (with figures by A . Vandevelde) at Amsterdam; and landscapes in Brussels, Florence (Uffizi), Berlin and Cologne . Several of his works have been falsely attributed to Rembrandt, and many more to his namesake and fellowtownsman-SALoMoN DE KONINCK (1609-1656), who was also a disciple of Rembrandt; his paintings and etchings consist mainly of portraits and biblical scenes . Both these painters are to be distinguished from DAVID DE KONINCK (1636-?1687), who is also known as " Rammelaar." He was born in Antwerp . He studied there under Jan Fyt, and later settled in Rome, where he is stated to have died in 1687; this is, however, doubtful . His pictures are chiefly landscapes with animals, and still-life .
