Dutch19th century poet and writer. Wrote under the pseudonym De Schoolmeester (the Schoolmaster), because after fleeing Holland he started a boarding school in Highgate. That flight became necessary after he had an affair with the wife of a university professor and making another girl pregnant. And he had some debts as well. He died in London and he is buried in Hornsey church yard. Click here to see where this photo was taken.
