Born in Bruges, the artist is thought to have received his first painting lessons from his father Gisbrecht Elinga, who died in 1637. He was recorded in Rotterdam in 1653 and then in Amsterdam in 1657 and 1662, the last time as a violinist as well as a painter. Few still lifes by the artist are known and none are dated. Vroom lists five signed examples of which the picture in the Bredius Museum, The Hague, is the only one on panel and with dimensions that match the present work (N.R.A. Vroom, A Modest Message, Schiedam, 1980, II, pp. 82-83).
