COORTE, Adriaen
Dutch Baroque Era Painter, ca.1660-1707
Dutch painter. He painted mainly small still-lifes, but contrary to the contemporary fashion for increasingly complicated representations of flowers and fruit, he preferred to paint single objects arranged as simply as possible. Coorte's subjects were generally fruit or vegetables, sometimes shells and, more rarely, flowers or vanitas arrangements. These are generally arranged on a stone plinth or slab, often with a crack or groove on the front edge. In the larger paintings the composition is sometimes enclosed in a niche Related Paintings of COORTE, Adriaen :. | French Port of St. Tropez | Rider of Cuba | Before the Ballet | Embarkation of St Paula Romana at Ostia | Still-life with Turkey-Pie cg | Related Artists: Abraham van der HeckenDutch Baroque Era Painter, active 1635-1655 Charles Courtney Curran1861-1942
