Biography

Trompe-l'œil by Heyman Dullaert

He was a student of Rembrandt, but was better known for his poetry than for his artwork.[1] His paintings, often trompe-l'œils, can be seen in the Kröller-Müller Museum.

As a poet he is remembered for his love sonnets Aan myne uitbrandende kaerse and Een korenwanner aan de winden, recently republished in De Nederlandse poëzie van de 17e en 18e eeuw by Gerrit Komrij.
