Portrait of Adam van Vianen

Dutch, 1559–1627

Adam van Vianen was a Dutch Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Cleveland Museum of Art.

Adam van Vianen (1568–1627) was a leading silversmith of the early Dutch Golden Age, who trained as an engraver and was also a medallist. Unlike his brother Paul van Vianen, he spent little time away from his native Utrecht. Together they developed the auricular style which bridges the gap between Northern Mannerist and Baroque ornament.
