No, not before 1727.
Two sisters lived to adulthood.

@twseel: No, not before 1898. @refugee: No, not European. She was born in Europe, but she has lived on two other continents since she was a child.

Yay! The three different continents rang a bell.
Now I will do something completely new. I haven’t got a clue who this person is, so you’ll have to help me. The only thing I know (because I decide it myself) is that it’s a real person. Now I will throw a dice to see if it’s a male or female (the women are odd, as we all know):
6!
It’s a man!
1-4 four means deceased:
3!
He’s no longer with us!
So the next one is a deceased male. I hope we will end up with an interesting person.

European?
I hope the dice won't guide you to Antarctica if this person died before 1677 .

1,3 and 5 means no. I roll the dice …
6!
He died before 1677.
One more time …
2!
European is correct.

As you can see, we’ve already established the fact that he was European. Now you can ask for specific countries – no need to ask for areas like Mediterranean or Nordic countries this time. At a certain point I will find a person who fits with all the information, and then I will start giving hints like we’re used to.

The dice says 3 – which means no, not before 1454.

4 – so apparently he was. Soon we have made a kind of rough map, and then I’ll find some terrain that fits with it.

6! Yes!
Please give me some time to find a few hints. I have a couple of good candidates here.

This is what you know so far:
Male, European artist who died some time between 1454 and 1677 at the age of more than 60.
Now to my first hint: Remarkably indifferent
