He is the only one of the large family of painters that specialized in the Dutch town-views, his big and famous example was Cornelis Springer.

His work was especially appreciated outstide Holland because it appealed to the idyllic ideas people had about the old, pitoresque Dutch towns and villages. His works are in museums in The Hague, Rotterdam and Cleve (Germany).
