Adriaen van ostade
Dutch Baroque Era Painter, 1610-1685
Painter, draughtsman and etcher. According to Houbraken's rather unreliable biography, he was a pupil concurrently with Adriaen Brouwer of Frans Hals in Haarlem. Hals influenced him very little, whereas Brouwer, who was described as 'known far and wide' as early as 1627, had a decisive influence on the evolution of Adriaen van Ostade's always idiosyncratic portrayal of peasant life. The first documentary mention of Adriaen van Ostade as a painter is in 1632 (Schnackenburg, 1970). Most of his paintings are signed and dated, the earliest firmly dated example being the Peasants Playing Cards Related Paintings of Adriaen van ostade :. | Buying fish | Peasant Family in a Cottage Interior | The cottage dooryard. | Peasant family at home | Van Ostade Riid | Related Artists: Matteo Di GiovanniItalian Early Renaissance Painter, ca.1430-1495 Jonathan RichardsonEnglish Baroque Era Painter, ca.1664-1745 Eldress Polly Jane Reedb.1818 d.1881
