Van Thielen trained with Theodoor Rombouts and Daniel Seghers before becoming a master of the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke in 1641/42. His wife Francisca was the sister-in-law of Erasmus Quellinus, with whom Thielen collaborated frequently. In many cases, Quellinus painted the cartouches for Thielen’s floral garlands. In 1660, Thielen returned to his native town of Mechelen, where he joined the local painters’ guild. His flower paintings betray a strong influence of his teacher, Daniel Seghers, although his colours are sharper and his drawing was less meticulous.
