Dirck Govertsz (1575, Gorinchem – 1647, Gorinchem), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.

Biography

According to Houbraken he was the teacher of Dirk & Raphael Camphuysen and Hendrik Verschuring.[1]

According to the RKD, besides being known as the teacher of Dirk & Rafaël Govertsz Camphuysen and Hendrik Verschuring, few works are known.[2] Works by him have been wrongly attributed to Jacob de Gheyn II or III due to an incorrect reading of his monogram.[2]
