Historical Artist - Willem Duyster (1599 - 1678)
Born in Amsterdam, Willem Duyster was known for painting genre scenes and portraits, often of
soldiers. His work displayed an outstanding ability to paint textiles, accurately portray his
subjects, and to depict relationships between his characters. Had he not died from the plague in
1635, scholars believe he would have become an extremely accomplished and admired artist.
