The Life and Travels of Daniël Boone
Daniël Boone, also known as Boon or Boontje, was a Flemish painter and art dealer. Born in Borgerhout, a village near Antwerp, he was the brother of Huybrecht and Salomon Boone. While his exact birth year is debated, records suggest he was likely born in 1631 or 1632. He was potentially a pupil of Joos van Craesbeeck, a painter from Antwerp.
Boone's life was marked by significant movement across Europe. He was documented in Amsterdam in 1654, where he was part of a social circle that included Reynier Hals and Pieter van Roestraeten. Following time spent in Middelburg, where he likely managed his brother's estate, he moved to England. He was a prolific creator, as evidenced by the 99 of his genre paintings offered at London auctions between 1689 and 1692. He passed away in London before the publication of his collection's sale advertisement in September 1692.
