Antonie Waterloo
Antonie Waterloo (6 May 1609 – 23 October 1690) was a Dutch Golden Age landscape painter. Biography Waterloo is thought to have been born at Ryssel (Lille), then in the Spanish Netherlands, now part of northern France. His mother was Magdalena Vaillant who became a member of the Walloon Church, Amsterdam in 1621, followed by his own membership in 1630.

Although registered as a painter, he had little success in selling his own canvases and, apparently, supported himself through his activities as an art dealer in addition to sales of his drawings and prints. In 1640 he married in Amsterdam, and in 1653 he left the church and moved to Leeuwarden, but in 1654 he buried a daughter in Amsterdam before moving to Maarssen in 1655 where he lived until 1676.

Antonie Vodă Din Popești
This is a list of princes of Wallachia, from the first mention of a medieval polity situated between the Southern Carpathians and the Danube until the union with Moldavia in 1859, which led to the creation of Romania. Notes Dynastic rule is hard to ascribe, given the loose traditional definition of the ruling family. On principle, princes were chosen from any family branch, including a previous ruler's bastard sons, being defined as ''os de domn'', "of Voivode marrow", or as having ''heregie'', "heredity" (from the Latin ''hereditas''); the institutions charged with the election, dominated by the boyars, had fluctuating degrees of influence. The system itself was challenged by usurpers, and became obsolete with the Phanariote epoch, when rulers were appointed by the Ottoman Sultans; between 1821 and 1878 (the date of Romania's independence), various systems combining election and appointment were put in practice. Wallachian rulers, like the Moldavian rulers, bore the titles of ' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
