Victors probably trained alongside Melchior d'Hondecoeter in the workshop of Jan-Baptiste Weenix in Amsterdam. After his training he left for Venice where he stayed for most of the 1660s, returning to the Netherlands by 1670. In Venice he enjoyed considerable success, and is also when he italianicised his name from Jacobus to Jacomo – as seen in the present painting. His work was to have a have a profound influence on the younger Venetian artist Giovanni Agostino Cassana.
