Lambert was born in Amersfoort. According to Houbraken he was an important painter and architect who became the father of the painter Adam van Noort.[1] In 1547 he became a member of the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke.[1] Houbraken took his information from Karel van Mander, who called him Lambrecht van Oort.[2]
