Conrad Lauwers
Conrad Lauwers, was a Flemish engraver.
According to the RKD he was the younger brother and pupil of Nicolaes Lauwers.
He joined the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke as a master in 1650 and was also active in the club "Sodaliteit van de Bejaerde Jongmans", a Jesuit society.
Like his older brother Nicolaes, he is known for engravings after Rubens. He engraved the portraits of Artus Quellinus II, Joris van Son, Pieter van Bredael, Pieter Boel, and Pieter Verbruggen for Cornelis de Bie's book of biographies, Het Gulden Cabinet. De Bie included a short poem about him on page 562 of his book, with the remark that Lauwers' travels to Paris resulted in his bringing back engravings of works by the French engravers François Polly and Robert Nanteuil, that he sold in his shop.
