Jeremias Falck is considered as one of the best engravers of the 17'th century.
Artist's education remains for us a complete mystery. For years Wilhelm Hondius was claimed to be his hypothetical teacher but according to contemporary researches results it seems improbable.
In 1639 Falck moved to Paris where he engraved famous series of Four Seasons of the Year - Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. For five years starting on 1649 he worked in Stockholm, Sweden for the queen Kerstin, after her abdication he returned to Gdansk. During so-called " Swedish Flood" - wars between Poland and Sweden, he worked in Paris, then Netherlands and Germany.
