Joachim Govertsz Camphuysen (1601–1659) was a Dutch landscape painter of the Golden Age. He was born in Gorinchem and died in Amsterdam. He was the son of a surgeon and the nephew of the painter Dirk Rafaelsz Camphuysen. His brother Rafaël Govertsz Camphuysen studied painting with him, and a cousin named Rafaël (Dirk’s son) also became a painter. His sister Lysbeth married the artist Aert van der Neer, who followed Camphuysen’s style. Camphuysen also influenced the painter Pieter van Asch.
