Pieter van Anraadt Biography
(b Utrecht, c. 1635; d Deventer, bur 13 April 1678). Dutch painter. He probably became a pupil of Gerard ter Borch (ii) in Deventer after 1654 and by 1660 he must have visited Amsterdam: the surprisingly mature Still-life with Stone Jar and Pipes (The Hague, Mauritshuis), signed and dated 1658, displays both the stylistic influence of ter Borch and an awareness of the work of the Amsterdam painters Jan Jansz. den Uyl (1595/61639/40) and Jan Jansz. Treck (c . 160652). This is the only still-life in van Anraadts oeuvre, which otherwise consists mainly of portraits, chiefly of groups.
