HASTIVEAU, RAOULIN (F-rench). Mint-engraver at Bourges, 1421 -I429.
HATFIELD, H. C. (Brit.). This Sculptor exhibited at the Society
of Arts' competition, I867, a panel, in bronze, chased, representing
a group of the Virgin and Child (after Donatello), which is now
in the Victoria and Albert Museum.
HATTEM, JEAN VAN (B.D. M., Vol. II, p. 439). Appointed
Engraver (graveur particulier) at the Brussels Mint, in succession
to Pierre Meulemans, 8. March I672. Three months later, on 29.
May, he was named Engraver-general of H.M.'s coins in place of
Michel van Thielt, who had just died, but he did not enter upon
his new office before 14. January I673. M. de Witte, from lwhom
these details are culled (Jean van Hattem, (graveltr br:txellois de
Molnnaies et de Jelons, Revue be/lg de 1inlisxmaltiqule, 1914) remarks
that, although previously but one Engraver-general existed for the
Spanish Netherlands, the government did not wait for the decease
of VanHattem to appoint, on 3. August I686, Philip Roettiers as
First Engraver-general. Van Hattem left the Mint on 21. September
I69I. Between I672 and 1691 the following denominations were
coined at Brussels, the dies tor vwhich were prepared by this Engraver: Al. Double Sovereigns, Sovereigns; - A. Ducatoons, Half
Ducatoons, Patagons, Half Patagons, and Sols; AE. Liards and
Gigots. These coins form a veritable iconographic series of
Charles II of Spain.
Besides the fine jeton already mentioned with the arms of Jacques
Pipenpoy, and dated I672, M. A. de Witte describes the following:
Jeton of the same, 1675; signed: H. F.; Jeton of the Franc of
Bruges, 1686; similarly signed:- 1674. Jeton of Jacques Pipenpoy; i- 675. Jeton of Philippe-Godefroy Van de Wouwere;
r676. Jeton of J. L. Madoets; - 1677. Jeton of Jean Lools; -
678. Jeton of Jean Heymans; - 1679. Jeton of Philippe-Godefroid
Van de Wouwere; 168o. Jeton of Jean Heymans; - i68I. The
same; I682. Jeton of Georges-Ignace van Eesbeke, dit vander
Haegen; 683. Jeton of Theodore d'Elshout, dit van Heusden;
— I684. Jeton of Jean Heymans; - 685. Thesame; i686. Jeton
of Guillaume van Hamme; - 687. Jeton of Jacques Madoets.
It is not certain whether Jean van Hattem ever engraved any
medals. A certain Gabriel Grupello was paid on r. January I684
48 livres for a Portrait-medal of Charles II. As Grupello was a
sculptor incapable of die-sinking and Vanl Hattem was his friend, it
is surmised that the latter engraved the steel dies from a probable
model by Grupello. It is however known that the artist executed a
number of Pilgrims' badges.
