Pieter Angelis - A Sculptors Studio.


A Sculptors Studio.
Pieter Angelis (1685 - 1734).

also spelled Angillis

A native of Dunkirk

Probably Worked in London prior to going to Düsseldorf (1712-1715), Antwerp (1715) - made Master of the Guild of St Luke in 1716, London (1719-1728) where he lived in Covent Garden, 

He travelled to Rome with sculptors Peter Scheemakers and Laurent Delvaux (1728-1731), Rennes (between circa 1731 and circa 1734 ). These facts need checking.
