Flemish school ; history and landscape painter, pupil of Jacques de Pot- ter in 1658 ; went to Italy and studied at Cremona under Agostino Bonisoli, probably visited Venice, Home, Florence, and Bo- logna, and finally settled at Piacenza. By Italian writers ho is quoted as Roberto La Longe or Uberto Da Longe, and surnamcd II Fiamniingo, the frequent application of which surname to Flemish painters make it all but certain that many of his works, painted during his long residence in Italy, are attributed to other masters. He paint- ed in a variety of styles, at times imitating Guido Reui, at others approaching Guer- cino, without ever abandoning the Flemish style.
