Aert van der Neer

Aert van der Neer worked as a steward before becoming a painter. His brothers-in-law were painters and his first work in 1632 displays similar stylistic elements. From 1659 to 1662, Van der Neer owned a tavern and then went bankrupt not long after, reaping little value from his assets. Despite financial stress, he continued to paint until his death in 1677.
