Abraham van Dijck
Girl holding a rose, c.1655
Abraham van Dijck (1635 in Amsterdam – 1680 in Dordrecht), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.
Biography[]
According to the RKD he was a Rembrandt pupil based on the style Rembrandt was using in the 1650s.[1] His earliest works are dated 1655. Though he is registered as working in Dordrecht and clearly was in Amsterdam, he is also registered in Alkmaar in 1659.[1] Besides Rembrandt, his works show the influence of Gabriël Metsu, Caspar Netscher and Quiringh Gerritsz van Brekelenkam.[1]
There is a fine painting by Abraham Van Dijk in the Brigham Young University Museum of Art in Provo, Utah ("Tobias Leaving His Parents").[need quotation to verify]
