Josina Margareta Weenix (c1674-1724) was a Dutch painter specialising in paintings of flowers.[1]
Early life
[edit]Josina Margareta Weenix was born in 1674 or 1675. Her father was Jan Weenix.[1]
Painting
[edit]By 1706, Weenix's paintings were being sold in Amsterdam. Her style was sufficiently similar to her father that some paintings were subsequently misattributed to the older painter or to his daughter Maria.[1][2]
Her work is held in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge[1], and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Exeter.[3]
Personal life
[edit]In November 1716, Josina married Pieter van der Sloot in Amsterdam. In 1723, the couple had a son.[1] Weenix died in 1724, and was buried in Amsterdam.[2]
