Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BLA-BOS
BLOEMAERT, ABRAHAM (15641651) , Dutch painter and engraver, was
born
  at
Gorinchem
 , the son of an architect. He was first a
pupil
  of Gerrit Splinter (
pupil
  of Frans
Floris
 ) and of Joos de Beer, at
Utrecht
 . He then spent three years in Paris, studying under several masters, and on his return to his native country received further training from Hieronymus Francken. In 1591 he went to
Amsterdam
 , and four years later settled finally at
Utrecht
 , where he became dean of the Gild of St
Luke
 . He excelled more as a colourist than as a draughtsman, was extremely productive, and painted and etched historical and allegorical pictures, landscapes, still-
life
 , animal pictures and flower pieces. Among his pupils are his four sons, Hendrick, Frederick, Cornelis and Adriaan (all of whom achieved consider-able reputation as painters or engravers), the two Honthorsts and Jacob G. Cuyp.
