Biography

Augustini was born in Haarlem as the son of the landscape painter Jan Augustini, who made large wall decorations and who taught him to paint. He started his career as a painter of allegorical works, and later stopped when he accepted a position as a tax collector.
When he lost his job due to circumstances beyond his control, Augustini started a small publishing house in Haarlem. Besides allegorical works, he is also known for portraits.
