Keep. Have you searched for other sources for this pupil of Van Dyck?
I easily find things like this article from "Oud Holland – Journal for Art of the Low Countries" (a reliable source), arguing that a work attributed to Jean de Reyn is by Jan Pietersz. van Rijn, but meanwhile discussing both painters.

This is a 1930 article purely about Jean de Reyn.

And in 2019 a whole conference was organised about him.

Please be aware of WP:BEFORE and don't start AfDs purely on the basis of the current state of the article. Fram (talk) 12:51, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Inexperienced, nonsense, nom - the authority template leads straight to tons of refs, on RKD etc. Johnbod (talk) 13:16, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The article can be improved with sources easily found online; AfD is not clean up. The artist clearly meets WP:NARTIST and WP:GNG. Netherzone (talk) 15:18, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Appears to be sufficient sourcing available to meet GNG. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:50, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:NARTIST and WP:GNG. This is not how and why articles should be nominated. gidonb (talk) 04:44, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
