Active in Gorinchem (1635–1643; 1652–1690), Utrecht (1643– 1646), Italy, including Rome (1646– 1654) and Paris (1651). Pupil of local Gorinchem artist Dirck Govertsz (1574/76–1646/47) and Utrecht landscape master Jan Both (1618/22–1652). Father’s military career (hopman – flag bearer) influenced the subjects of Verschuring’s paintings. His works merge Italianate landscape with genre painting. Mostly painted small genre scenes with soldiers, their families, horses, dogs, high walls of ancient buildings, with army camps located nearby, in the background – mountain landscape. One of the characteristics of Verschuring’s style is a white horse depicted in the foreground or centre of compositions. Also made battle paintings and portraits.
