Visscher, Jan Claes (Dutch draftsman, printmaker, and publisher, 1587-1652)

Note: Claes Jansz. Visscher, the younger sometimes marked his prints with a monogram composed of a C, an I, and a V. The monogram may be followed by the last letters of Visscher's last name "iácher". Various sources have confused this artist with Claes Jansz. Visscher, also known as Piscator, ca. 1550-1612.
