Boëtius Adams Bolswert — Paintings, Biography & Famous Works

Flemish, 1580–1633

Boëtius Adams Bolswert was a Flemish Baroque artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art. Boëtius Adams Bolswert was born in Bolsward.

Boetius à Bolswert (also Boetius Adamsz Bolswert, Bodius; c. 1585, – late 1633) was a Flemish engraver of Friesland origin. In his time the paintings of Peter Paul Rubens called forth new endeavours by engravers to imitate or reproduce the breadth, density of mass and dynamic illumination of those works. Boetius Bolswert was an important figure in this movement, not least because he was the elder brother and instructor of the engraver Schelte à Bolswert, whose reproductions of Rubens's landscapes were most highly esteemed in their own right.
