(5) Arnold de Jode
(b Antwerp, c. 1638; d London, 1667). Engraver, son of (4) Pieter de Jode (ii). He was a pupil of his father and was admitted to the Antwerp Guild of St Luke in 1658–9. In 1666 he was in London. Only a very small oeuvre by him is known. His earliest engraving is a Landscape (1658; Hollstein, no. 6) after Lodewijk de Vadder. Three religious subjects, namely the Christ Child with the Infant John the Baptist (1666; H 1), a Crucifixion (H 2) and a Penitent Virgin (H 3), were after compositions by van Dyck, while a mythological subject, the Upbringing of Cupid by Mercury and Venus (1667; H 4), is after Correggio. There are also engraved portraits by Arnold, of which the most important are those of the engraver and author Alexander Browne (H 7) after Jacob Huysmans; Admiral Cornelis Evertsen (1575; H 8) and Admiral Johannes Evertsen (1591; H 9) after Pieter Borsseler; Catherine Howard, Duchess of Lenox (H 10) after van Dyck; and Cardinal Antoniotto Palavicini (H 12) after Titian.
