Biography
Print publishing partnership of two brothers; founded 1726 as R & I Ottens. On death of Reinier I in 1650 continued by his son Reinier II, but with reversed order of names, as Joshua & Reinier Ottens, until 1765. Much of business involved reprinting older plates.
Joshua's widow, Johanna de Lindt, held sale of plates in 1784 (see Hollstein p.16).
