Adriaen Cornelisz. Beeldemaker (1618, Rotterdam – 1709, The Hague), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.
Biography
According to Jan van Gool he specialized in painting scenes of deer and boar hunts.[1] His paintings were popular, probably because he asked modest prices for them.[1] He had many pupils and many children; two of his sons later became painters.[1]
According to The Netherlands Institute for Art History (Dutch: Rijksbureau voor Kunsthistorische Documentatie or RKD), he was also known as Johannes, and became the father of the painters Cornelis and Frans Beeldemaker.[2] He worked in Leiden and Dordrecht.[2]
Examples of his work are represented at Kadriorg Palace, (part of the Art Museum of Estonia) in Tallinn, Estonia.[3]
