Biography:
Belon studied medicine in Paris and became a pupil of the botanist Valerius Cordus (1515-1544) in Wittenberg, Germany. After returning to France, Francois de Tournon became his patron and financed Belon's extensive scientific journey through Greece, Asia Minor, Egypt, Arabia and Palestine between 1546 and 1549. In 1553, he published his observations on this journey, which Carolus Clusius translated into Latin. Belon also published other works on natural history. Favored by both Henry II and Charles IX, Belon was assassinated in Paris in April 1564.

Biography:
Duke of Aerschot and Prince of Chimay. One of the highest and most wealthy noblemen of the Southern Netherlands. Married Marie de Brimeu in September 1580, he was ten years her junior. Marie de Brimeu converted him to Protestantism and they moved to the Southern Netherlands. Because of political conflicts with William, Prince of Orange, De Croy returned to Catholicism and to the Habsburg regime after some years, while Marie de Brimeu remained a Calvinist and stayed in the Netherlands. His sister was Anne de Croy, Duchess of Aerschot, she was married to Charles d'Arenberg.
De Croy was a collector of various things: art, antiquities and naturalia. Jacques Plateau sold some of his ornithological curiosities to the Duke, and became a member of his staff from 1604 onwards.
Shared botanical interest with Carolus Clusius, they corresponded. Clusius visited him in The Hague in the spring of 1598 to see his tulips. De Croy and Clusius exchanged pictures as well. The engraving of an Indian Daffodil (Rariorum Plantarum, 1601) is based on an illustration Clusius received from De Croy, for example.

Important patron of arts and science. Created a famous collection of art, instruments and natural history objects in Schloss Ambrass in Innsbruck. Employed several well-known scholars and artists.
In 1562 he supported the Czech edition of P.A. Matthioli's (who was his physician) Commentaries on Dioscorides, and hired Giorgo Liberali to execute the illustrations. Liberali would be his animal painter for seventeen years long (1562-1579).
