Cornelis van Noorde - 3 pictures of the Haarlem area.

Cornelis van Noorde was an 18th-century draftsman and painter who also worked in Bergh. He was born on March 12, 1731, in Haarlem, the son of Rijkes van Noorde and Josina van de Berg. His parents owned a bakery. He married Catharina van Seelen in 1783. He died on October 16, 1795, in Haarlem, aged 64.

Van Noorde made many portraits, but his topographical drawings are particularly important today because they often depict buildings and cityscapes that have since disappeared. He worked primarily in and around Haarlem, but during a trip in 1756, he visited 's-Heerenberg, among other places. He subsequently visited Elten, Rees, and Wesel.
