He joined the painters' guild in The Hague in 1634, returned to Amsterdam in 1644 and died there in 1647. He was a book illustrator and printmaker as well as a painter and was noted for his satire and his almost caricature-like portrayal of human figures. His humor, his decidedly personal touch, and an implied moral in spite of its subject matter raises Quast's wo (showing 500 of 1199 characters). |
