One of the nicest
subjects for collecting are the Dutch landscapes from the mid of the 17th
century.
With this online catalogue I'm glad to offer some of the finest artists
from the period.
Roeland Roghman (1597-1686) - Dutch School
Painter,
etcher and draughtsman, brother of (1) Geertruydt Roghman. Arnold
Houbraken said: ‘He was in his day, with Gerbrand van den Eeckhout, a
great friend of Rembrandt van Rijn’. Roghman is usually considered a
pupil of Rembrandt in Amsterdam, but there is no documentary evidence,
and his style gives little support for this. Houbraken also mentioned
that Roghman was blind in one eye. What is certain is that Roghman was
familiar with the work of his great-uncle Roelandt Savery and that he
travelled a great deal in the Netherlands and probably also through the
Alps. A series of etchings of eight Mountainous Tyrolean Landscapes was
published in Augsburg (Hollstein, nos 25–32); given their realistic
character, it is likely that they were executed after his travels. It is
possible but unconfirmable that Roghman also visited Italy, but he is
documented in Amsterdam again

Jan Van
Almeloven
(1652-1683)
Jan van Almeloveen
(c. 1652 — after 1683 was a Dutch painter, engraver, and draughtsman of the 17th
century, principally known for some neatly-executed etchings of landscapes.
He was born c. 1652 in Mijdrecht, according to an inscription on his 1678
mezzotint portrait of his father, Johannes ab Almeloveen, a preacher in that
city. He made 38 prints in total, all of which are etchings, mostly landscapes,
including Dutch villages and rivers. Twenty of his landscape prints are based on
the work of Dutch painter Herman Saftleven, with twelve depicting Dutch
villages, and a series of four diamond-shaped prints of the Four Seasons. The
other prints were created from his own designs and are less lively in
composition. He died sometime after 1683, the year written on his last known
print.
