Gerbrand van den Eeckhout

Gerbrand van den Eeckhout

Gerbrand van den Eeckhout was a pupil and close friend of Rembrandt, and his biblical scenes follow his teacher’s warm, golden light and rich costumes. Later he developed a lighter, more elegant manner and also painted genre scenes and portraits.

He was born in Amsterdam in 1621, the son of a jeweller, and trained in Rembrandt’s studio in the late 1630s. He remained in Amsterdam, working as a painter, draughtsman and etcher, and also collected art. His works include Christ in the Temple (1662) in Munich and Abraham and the Three Angels in the Hermitage. He died in Amsterdam in 1674.

Isaac Blessing Jacob is a typical Rembrandt inspired scene of shadowed interior and dramatic gesture.
