Abraham Bloemaert 1564-1651 Flemish painter (b. 1564, Dordrecht, d. 1651, Utrecht)

Influential Dutch Mannerist painter and engraver.

The son of an architect, Bloemaert studied at Utrecht under eminent painters, spent three years in Paris, and then returned to settle finally at Utrecht, where he became dean of the Guild of St. Luke. He painted and etched historical and allegorical pictures, landscapes, still lifes, animal pictures, and flower pieces. His four sons - Hendrick, Frederick, Cornelis, and Adriaen - all achieved considerable reputations themselves as painters and engravers.

Ferdinand Bol 1616-1680 Dutch painter (b. 1616, Dordrecht, d. 1680, Amsterdam

Bol was a Dutch painter working in Amsterdam. He was one of the pupils of Rembrandt.

Ferdinand Bol was born in Dordrecht in 1616. He studied in Rembrandt’s studio around 1635; the master strongly influenced the development of the young artist. Bol stayed and worked in Amsterdam till the end of his life in 1680; he painted portraits, historical compositions and sometimes still-lifes. In his early works the powerful authority of Rembrandt is seen, but already in 1650s he changed his palette to a lighter one.

Aert de Gelder 1645-1727 Dutch painter (b. 1645, Dordrecht, d. 1727, Dordrecht

Dutch painter, active mainly in his native Dordrecht.

After studying there with Hoogstraten, he became one of Rembrandt's last pupils in Amsterdam. He was not only one of the most talented of Rembrandt's pupils, but also one of his most devoted followers, for he was the only Dutch artist to continue working in his style into the 18th century. His religious paintings, in particular, with their imaginative boldness and preference for oriental types, are very much in the master's spirit, although de Gelder often used colors--such as lilac and lemon yellow--that were untypical of Rembrandt, and his palette was in general lighter. One of his best-known works, Jacob's Dream (Dulwich College Picture Gallery, London), was long attributed to Rembrandt.
