Peeter van Loon (c. 1600 – 1660) was a Flemish Baroque painter.
According to Houbraken who quoted Cornelis De Bie, he was good at painting perspective and buildings.[1] He was born and died in Antwerp in the 17th century, but died before De Bie's book was written in 1662.[1]
According to the Netherlands Institute for Art History he was the son of the painter Guillaume van Loon and Margrita Ingenhave.[2] In 1652 and 1660 he is registered as a bachelor, and is known for historical allegories. He was mentioned in the Antwerp Liggeren as the recipient of a 1638 church payment.[2]
