Abraham Calraet
  • Biography

    Calraet was a student of the two painters Samuel and Aemilius Hup, who also worked as sculptors in Dordrecht. It is believed that he was a pupil of Aelbert Cuyp (1620-1691).

    Due to the similarity with the monogram, Calraet's pictures were often assigned to Cuyp, which the art historian Abraham Bredius was able to correct for the first time.
