Hendrick ter Brugghen

(The Hague (?) 1588 - 1629 Utrecht)

The singing lute player

Canvas, 100.3 x 83.5 cm

Hendrick ter Brugghen is today considered the most important exponent of the Utrecht followers of Caravaggio. This painting is an autograph replica of the painting in the National Gallery, London. Its rich, beautifully preserved colouration is undoubtedly one of its most attractive features.
