Dutch Baroque Era Painter, 1629-1684 Dutch painter. He was one of the most accomplished 17th-century Dutch genre painters, excelling in the depiction of highly ordered interiors with domestic themes and merry companies and pioneering the depiction of genre scenes set in a sunlit courtyard. The hallmarks of his art are an unequalled responsiveness to subtle effects of daylight, and views to adjoining spaces, either through a doorway or a window,  Related Paintings of HOOCH, Pieter de :. | Woman Reading a Letter s | Woman and Maid sg | Company Making Music af | Woman Peeling Apples sg | Musical Party in a Courtyard sg |
