Andries Both Biography

(b Utrecht, c. 1612; d Venice, 1641). After an apprenticeship in the workshop of Abraham Bloemart, where he is documented in 1624–5, Andries left Utrecht for Italy during the early 1630s. Among the works probably produced before his departure are a number of pen-and-ink landscape drawings such as the Drawbridge near a Town Rampart (Amsterdam, Rijksmus.). In 1633 he was at Rouen, as is confirmed by a signed, dated and inscribed drawing of Four Peasants Eating and Drinking Outside (Weimar, Schlossmus.). Towards the end of 1634 or early in 1635 he probably arrived in Rome, where he is documented from 1635 to 1641.
