(b St Truiden, nr Liège, bapt 20 Nov 1625; d Antwerp, 22 Nov 1700). Sculptor, nephew of (1) Erasmus Quellinus (i). He trained in the studio of his cousin (3) Artus Quellinus (i) and in 1650 became a master in the Antwerp Guild of St Luke. In 1653 he married Anna Maria Gabron, the sister of the painter Guilliam Gabron (1619–78), and they had three sons, two of whom—(6) Artus Quellinus (iii) and (7) Thomas Quellinus—became sculptors; the third, Cornelis Quellinus (d 1709), became a painter. Artus Quellinus (ii) joined Artus Quellinus (i) in Amsterdam c. 1653 as one of the assistants working at the Stadhuis. Two years later he went to Italy (probably visiting Turin, Florence and Rome) and returned to Antwerp in 1657.
