Esaias van de Velde was the son of Hans van de Velde and trained in Amsterdam, likely in his father's studio, before probably becoming the pupil of Gillis van Coninxloo. In 1609 the Van de Velde family established itself in Haarlem. Esaias became a member of the artist's guild in 1612, of the literary club in Wyngaardranken in 1617, and the guild at The Hague in 1618. He was painter to the court of Princes Maurice and Frederick Henry, and had as his pupils Pieter de Neyn and Jan van Goyen.
