'''Cornelis Pietersz Bega''', or ''Cornelis Pietersz Begijn'' (1631/1632 &ndash; 27 August 1664) was a [[Dutch Golden Age]] painter and engraver.


Bega was born, lived and worked in Haarlem shake and was the son of sculptor and goldsmith Pieter Jansz. Begijn. His mother Maria was the illegitimate daughter of the Haarlem painter [[Cornelis van Haarlem]].<ref name=RKD>[http://www.rkd.nl/rkddb/dispatcher.aspx?action=search&database=ChoiceArtists&search=priref=5940 Cornelis Pietersz Bega] in the [[RKD]]</ref> He assumed the name ''Bega'' when he started working professionally. He was a student of [[Adriaen van Ostade]], and produced genre scenes of similar subjects, typically groups of a few peasant figures, often in interior settings, or fanciful figures such as ''The Alchemist'' (Malibu) or ''The Astrologer'' (London).

From 1653 to 1654 he traveled by horse and boat on a [[Grand Tour]] with fellow painters [[Dirk Helmbreker]], [[Vincent van der Vinne]] and [[Guillam Dubois]] through [[Germany]], [[Switzerland]] and [[France]]. This trip was recorded in Vincent van der Vinne's diaries and gives an accurate view of the art in the cities they visited in those times.<ref>Vincent Laurensz van der Vinne; Bert Sliggers, Jr. (forward).
