Les Decker de Delft étaient liés avec Fabritius, puisqu'il était en train de faire le portrait de Simon Decker au moment de l'explosion de la poudrière, et il paraît même que le C. Decker, auteur des gravures illustrant le livre de Van Bleijswijck, était parent de Fabritius.

Fabritius (1622-1654), who was one of the most famous pupils of Rembrandt, is well represented by a self-portrait and a picture of a goldfinch, shown above, both marvelous and very fine paintings, and "A View in Delft," a very, very interesting perspective study.
Pieter de Hooch (1629-1684), who is perhaps the artist whose work comes closest to Vermeer's, is represented by a pair of street scenes that are quite similar to the Vermeer street scene in the exhibition.

 History of Art: Baroque and Rococo
Rembrandt had many pupils in Leiden and Amsterdam, including Gerrit Dou, Govaert Flinck, Samuel van Hoogstraten, Carel Fabritius, and Nicolaes Maes.
In 1650, Fabritius (1622-54) moved to Delft and, inspired by his adopted city, gained a reputation for his vibrant, colourful paintings and his exploration of perspective, demonstrated by his View of Delft (1652).
His father, Jasper van Baburen (d ?1599), had been in the service of Geertruijd van Bronckhorst van Battenburg, Baroness (vrijvrouw) of Vianen, Viscountess (burggravin) of Utrecht, and thus Dirck must have received a better than average education, a fact at least partially confirmed by the innovative and often literary nature of his subject-matter.
