Born: 1746 in Tilburg, Netherlands.
Van Spaendonck came from an artistic family; his younger brother, Cornelis van Spaendonck, also became a successful painter.
In the 1760s, he began his formal training with decorative painter Willem Jacob Herreyns (also known as Guillaume-Jacques Herreyns) in Antwerp. This early exposure shaped his meticulous attention to detail and refined technique.
In 1769, Van Spaendonck relocated to Paris, a pivotal move that launched his international career.
1774: He was appointed as a miniature painter at the court of Louis XVI, marking a significant step in his recognition and patronage.
This position allowed him access to aristocratic circles and further refined his skills in delicate floral depictions.
1780: Van Spaendonck succeeded Madeleine Françoise Basseporte as professor of floral painting at the prestigious Jardin des Plantes.
Shortly after, he was elected a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, solidifying his status within the French art establishment.
He became an influential teacher, mentoring notable artists like Pierre-Joseph Redouté and Henriette Vincent.
Van Spaendonck excelled in both oil painting and watercolor techniques.
He contributed over fifty works to Les Vélins du Roi, a renowned collection of botanical watercolors commissioned by the French royal family. These pieces demonstrate his exceptional skill in capturing the nuances of floral forms.
Fleurs Dessinees d'apres Nature (Flowers Drawn from Life): Published between 1799 and 1801, this series of twenty-four engraved plates served as a valuable resource for students of floral painting. It remains a highly treasured book on the subject today.
His paintings often feature intricate details of flowers alongside insects, adding another layer of naturalism to his compositions.

1795: Became a founding member of the Institut de France.
