Gerard Soest Biography

(b c . 1600; d London, 11 Feb 1681). Painter, active in England. He is traditionally stated to have come from Soest in Westphalia but was almost certainly Dutch by birth and training. He probably came to England in the late 1640s, and his earliest works show some influence from William Dobson. His earliest dated work was painted in 1646. Although he had a respectable practice he never established himself in the most fashionable circles in London and was never employed at the court.
