OLIVER, ISAAC (c. 1566--1617) , English miniature painter, was probably born in London, as in 1571 a certain Peter Olivier of Rouen was residing in London with his wife and had been there for three years with one " chylde " named " Isake. It would seem likely, therefore, that he was not at that time more than six years old.
