Jacques Waben (c. 1590, Hoorn – c. 1634, Hoorn), was a Dutch Golden Age portrait painter.

Biography

According to Houbraken he was a good portrait and history painter, who painted both small and large pieces.[1] Houbraken admired the history of Joseph in 4 panels that hung in the Proveniers Hof in Hoorn when he was writing. He also saw a history of Jephthah dated 1602, at the Hoorn home of the painter Johannes Bronkhorst.[1]

According to the RKD many of his paintings survive in local private collections and the Westfries Museum.[2]
