Frederick de Moucheron was born in 1633 in Emden, Germany. Frederick was apprenticed to the landscape painter Jan Asselijn and then traveled to France, staying in Lyon and Paris in 1656. According to Houbraken, he met Theodor Helmbreker in Paris, who is said to have added the figures for several of Frederik’s compositions. Moucheron may never visited Italy, but painted southern landscapes in an Italianate style and in the 1660s also took to producing park scenes populated with elegantly dressed figures. In many cases the figural staffage in his paintings is by the hand of Johannes Lingelbach.

Frederick Moucheron, a landscape painter, trained under Jan Asselyn and was influenced by Italianate artists in Amsterdam. His style is reminiscent of Asselyn, Jan Both, and Adam Pynacker, featuring well-defined trees, architectural elements, and waterfalls. While there is no concrete evidence of his trip to Italy, drawings from the Van der Hem Atlas suggest he may have traveled along the Mediterranean coast, including sites in Morocco, Italy, and Greece. The artist's work often depicts scenes resembling those of Tivoli, with one drawing showing a view of Ischia.
