This article appears in Volume V13, Page 560 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HIG-HOR
HOEFNAGEL, JORIS (1545-1601) , Dutch painter and engraver, the son of a diamond
merchant
 , was born at Antwerp. I-Ie travelled abroad, making drawings from archaeological subjects, and was a
pupil
  of Jan Bol at Mechlin. He was afterwards patronized by the elector of
Bavaria
  at
Munich
 , where he stayed eight years, and by the Emperor
Rudolph
  at Prague. He died at Vienna in 16o1. He is famous for his miniature
work
 , especially on a missal in the imperial library at Vienna; he painted animals and
plants
  to illustrate works on natural
history
 ; and his engravings (especially for Braun's Civitates orbis terrarum, 1J72, and Ortelius's Theatrum orbis terrarum, 1570) give him an interesting
place
  among early topographical draughtsmen.
