Jacobus Van Eynde
Jacobus van Eynde or van den Eynde (fl. 1696–1729; died 17 January 1729) was a Flemish organ builder. Biography Both place and date of van Eynde's birth are currently unknown. He was likely the son of Pierre van Eynde, organist of the Church of Saint-Éloi in Dunkirk (French Flanders, then part of the Habsburg Netherlands). Pierre was organist in Saint-Éloi from 1684 to 1718. It is not known where Jacobus learned his art, but he probably studied with Jan and Guilielmus . He was renowned for the quality of his instruments and was referred to as the pinnacle of the West Flemish Baroque. He can be regarded as the most important organ builder in the county of Flanders until the beginning of the 18th century. His work was the pinnacle of the school, via Nicolaas Helewoudt and Jan and Guilielmus van Belle. From 1696 van Eynde lived in Ypres.

17th-century Births
The 17th century lasted from January 1, 1601 ( MDCI), to December 31, 1700 ( MDCC). It falls into the early modern period of Europe and in that continent (whose impact on the world was increasing) was characterized by the Baroque cultural movement, the latter part of the Spanish Golden Age, the Dutch Golden Age, the French ''Grand Siècle'' dominated by Louis XIV, the Scientific Revolution, the world's first public company and megacorporation known as the Dutch East India Company, and according to some historians, the General Crisis. From the mid-17th century, European politics were increasingly dominated by the Kingdom of France of Louis XIV, where royal power was solidified domestically in the civil war of the Fronde. The semi-feudal territorial French nobility was weakened and subjugated to the power of an absolute monarchy through the reinvention of the Palace of Versailles from a hunting lodge to a gilded prison, in which a greatly expanded royal court could be more easily k ...

Year Of Birth Unknown
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year ( ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
