Hendrik Abbé was a Flemish painter, engraver and architect.

Life

Abbé was baptized in 1639 in the cathedral at Antwerp. Some prints by him were published in Antwerp in 1670. An edition of Ovid's Metamorpheses, published by Francois Foppens in Brussels in 1677, was partly illustrated with plates by other engravers after drawings by Abbé.
