Born in Brussels, Van den Bundel mostly lived between Delft and Amsterdam. He was possibly a pupil of Gillis van Coninxloo (1544-1607), with whose work his landscapes bear many similarities. Van den Bundel, who also worked as a dealer, assisted with the sale of Van Coninxloo's estate in 1607 and 1614.
