Artist
Peeter Clouwet
Peeter Clouwet is an artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Peeter Clouwet made small, detailed prints in the middle of the 1600s. His 1650 engraving *Descent from the Cross* shows the same arched doorway that appears in his *The Cow-House*, a view of a low brick shed where cows stand on straw. These prints belong to a Dutch tradition where artists traveled the countryside to document everyday barns, churches, and markets with sharp lines and careful shading. Next, tap *The Cow-House* to see how he framed a humble farmyard into a quiet scene.
