Dutch, 1634–1693
Nicolaes Maes (January 1634 – December 1693) was a Dutch painter recognized for his genre scenes, portraits, religious works, and occasional still lifes. He trained in Rembrandt's Amsterdam studio before establishing himself as an independent artist in Dordrecht, where he worked for two decades. After moving to Amsterdam in 1673, Maes became the leading portrait painter of his era, attracting many clients among the city's wealthy citizens. In Dordrecht, he taught several students, among them his stepson and Margaretha van Godewijk.
