Lambert Gysbrechtsz Kruyck (before 1590-1644). He owned the Delftware pottery De Dissel (The Hammer or The Shaft) at the southern corner of Molslaan and Oosteinde. An inventory in 1641 showed a net wealth of over 11,000 guilders which included paintings with religious themes.

Note. Montias Patrons/Bramer, p. 38. GAD Internet Inv 5 Nederd. Geref. Gem. mentions marriage of Kruyck, profession table cloth weaver, in 1609. This would mean he was born before 1590, not "c. 1599".
