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 :. | The Schoolmaster | The quack. | Die Fischverkauferin | The painter in his workshop | Peasant at a Window | Related Artists: MAUPERCHe, HenriFrench Baroque Era Painter, ca.1602-1686 Samuel MillerAmerican Painter, 1807-1853 Samuel Palmer,OWS1805-1881
