(8) Filips [Philipp] Sadeler
(b ?Venice, c. ?1600). Engraver and print publisher, possibly also a painter, son of (3) Raphael Sadeler I. He was trained in Munich, where his father had returned in 1604. In 1624 he married Regina, daughter of Peter Candid. Around 1633 Filips went to live in Passau. His engravings consist chiefly of title-pages and illustrations for religious books, for example the engravings after drawings by Thomas Hoffmann (d 1646) in Infernus damnatorum carcer et rogus aeternitatis (1631), including Virtue Defeating Sins (Mary Overcoming the Dragon; Wurzbach, no. 2), engravings for the 1630 reprint of Orbis Phaeton of H. Drechsels (1629) and engravings in the Templum gratiarum (1633). Kramm mentioned a painted Portrait of a Man (1647) by Filips.
