Simon Hardimé
Simon Hardimé (1672–1737) was a Walloon painter of flowers and fruit.
Life
Hardimé was born at Antwerp, and became a pupil of Jan Baptist Crepu, a flower-painter. After four years he was admitted a master of the guild of St. Luke in 1689. Money troubles caused him to travel from Antwerp to The Hague, where his younger brother and former pupil Pieter (1678–1758) lived. The move did not work out, and he went on to London to work.[1]
Works
Hardimé painted his still lives of flowers and fruit from nature. He received commissions from the Earl of Scarborough, and in Antwerp and Brussels. He painted for William III of England a flower piece that went to the palace at Breda.[1]
