Judith Leyster Biography

(b Haarlem, bapt 28 July 1609; d Heemstede, bur 10 Feb 1660). Dutch painter. She painted genre scenes, portraits and still-lifes, and she may also have made small etchings; no drawings by her are known. She specialized in small intimate genre scenes, usually with women seated by candlelight, and single half-length figures set against a neutral background. She was influenced by both the UTRECHT CARAVAGGISTI and Frans Hals.
