Daniël Stopendaal
Daniël Stopendaal is documented as a printmaker active in the Netherlands during the late 17th century, with verifiable output centered around the year 1682. His known works consist primarily of detailed topographical and architectural studies, focusing on Dutch estates and their surrounding landscapes.
Five prints attributed to Stopendaal are represented in major museum collections, including the Rijksmuseum. These detailed copperplate prints serve as important historical documentation of specific structures and their design. Notable works documenting Slot Zeist include the expansive aerial study Gezicht op Slot Zeist en de omgeving in vogelvlucht / Gezicht vanaf Slot Zeist op het dorp en de omgeving, paired with Grote laan van Slot Zeist naar het dorp / De kom bij Slot Zeist.
Stopendaal also documented Kasteel Zuilenstein, captured in the bird’s-eye view Kasteel Zuilenstein in vogelvlucht. This documentation is supplemented by focused architectural prints detailing specific elements of the structure, such as Poortgebouw en stallen van Kasteel Zuilenstein and Zijaanzicht van Kasteel Zuilenstein. Stopendaal’s highly detailed Daniël Stopendaal prints are valued for their accuracy. As these historical works reside in the public domain, they are often available as high-quality prints for study and reference.
