Abraham Bloemaert

Dutch, 1564–1651

Activo principalmente en Utrecht, Abraham Bloemaert se formó en París y inicialmente pintó en el estilo manierista de Haarlem antes de adoptar el enfoque barroco. Nacido en Gorinchem en 1566, era conocido por sus pinturas históricas, paisajes y grabados, e introdujo un mayor naturalismo y motivos rurales en su obra. Bloemaert enseñó a muchos artistas, incluidos sus cuatro hijos y varios pintores de Utrecht, y ayudó a fundar el Gremio de San Lucas de Utrecht. Muchos de sus encargos provienen de las iglesias católicas clandestinas de Utrecht, y murió en Utrecht en 1651.
