Jan van Belkamp (1610 Antwerp - 1653, London), a Dutch artist, who passed the greater part of his artistic life in England, where he was much employed in copying the pictures in the Royal Collection, and died in 1663. Some are still in the Royal Collection; and at Drayton there were formerly portraits of Henry VII and Henry VIII, copied from a large picture by Holbein, which was burnt at Whitehall.
