Waterlo [Waterloo], Antoni [Anthonie]

(b Lille, bapt 6 May 1609; d Utrecht, 23 Oct 1690). Dutch painter, draughtsman and etcher. He was the son of a Flemish cloth-shearer who had fled to Amsterdam for religious reasons. In 1640 Antoni married Cathalyna van der Dorp in Amsterdam, and between 1641 and 1651 they had six children. Although he is recorded as a ‘painter’ in the baptismal registers of his children, his work predominantly consists of landscape drawings and etchings. His earliest known dated work is a sheet depicting a View of the Blaauwbrug in Amsterdam (1649; Amsterdam, Gemeente Archf).
