Allart van Everdingen
Dutch, 1621–1675
Everdingen trained in Utrecht and Haarlem and in 1644 travelled to Scandinavia, where he sketched the mountains, forests and waterfalls of Norway and Sweden. Back in Haarlem and later in Amsterdam, he made these northern scenes his speciality, introducing the rushing waterfall into Dutch painting and influencing Jacob van Ruisdael. He was also a prolific etcher of landscapes and made a well-known series illustrating the fable of Reynard the Fox.
