Claim: Jan van de Venne has been since been identified as Pseudo-Van de Venne by Jacques Foucart from the Louvre.
Evidence: Jan van de Venne or Jan van der Venne, also known as Pseudo van de Venne (active by 1616 – died before 1651), was a Flemish painter of genre, religious scenes, and cabinets who was court painter to the governors of the Southern Netherlands. Art historian Jacques Foucart from the Louvre corrected the wrong attribution in an article published in 1978. Foucart identified Pseudo-Van de Venne with another Jan van de Venne whom he identified as a Flemish artist. This identification of 'Pseudo-Van de Venne' with Jan van de Venne, an artist believed to have been born in Mechelen c. 1600, has since gained wide acceptance. Works by Jan van de Venne were formerly attributed to an artist referred to as 'Pseudo-Van de Venne'.
