Description from the seller

Cornelis Abrahamsz. Bloemaert II (Utrecht, c. 1603 – Rome, September 28, 1692) was a Dutch painter and engraver during the Golden Age, best known for his reproduction prints. He was the grandson of architect Cornelis Bloemaert I (c. 1540–1593).

He was born as the second son of his father Abraham Bloemaert and studied alongside his father, his brothers Hendrick and Adriaen, and his father's pupil, Gerard van Honthorst. Although he initially learned the painting craft, he mainly focused on printmaking, which he learned from Crispijn de Passe de Oude (I). In 1630, he went to Paris, where he created engravings for Michel de Marolles' Temple des Muses. In 1633, he moved to Rome.

His work can be recognized by the richness of the colors and the softness of the transitions between them. Among his pupils are Michel Natalis and Gilles Rousselet. Some of his better-known engravings include Annibale Carracci's The Holy Family, Pietro da Cortona's Adoration of the Shepherds, and Rubens' Meleager.

According to Houbraken, he traveled to Rome to make copies of many Italian paintings. He was so successful in this that he stayed there until he received word that his father wanted to see him one last time before he died. However, he postponed his return so long that his father passed away, and he remained in Rome until he died there himself. He was a member of the Bentvueghels with the bent name 'Winter'.

Seller's Story

Snackers Antiques & Fine Art Based in Maastricht since 2020. Specialized in religious art. Vincent Snackers is the owner of Snackers Antiques & Fine Art, he was very interested in the Catholic faith and all the rituals that go with it at a young age. Palaces and museums also fascinated him. Through collecting, he eventually started the store in 2020, and he continues to collect himself, because a beautiful 18th century cupboard or a pair of Empire candlesticks never gets boring. It is always a nice challenge to find out the background of the object. And when the object then goes to a new owner who enjoys it, the circle is complete again.
