His father died young, leaving Jan Baptist in a poor home and uneducated. At the age of 17 he is said to have still been illiterate. When young Jan Baptist showed a talent for art, his brothers, who were his guardians, placed him in the care of the flower painter Jan Baptist de Crépu, with whom he studied from the year 1685 onwards. He also lived in Crépu's household. Another pupil of Crépu who studied at the same time as Bosschaert was the flower painter Simon Hardimé.
