Gerard Houckgeest paintings

Gerard Houckgeest

Gerard Houckgeest (c. 1600–August 1661) was a Dutch Golden Age painter of architectural scenes and church interiors. Gerard Houckgeest is thought to have been born in The Hague, where he learned to paint from Bartholomeus van Bassen. He worked in The Hague, Delft, Steenbergen and Bergen op Zoom. He may have spent some time in England as well. Charles I owned at least five "Perspectives" (paintings whose principal aspect was its perspective whether it was a landscape or interior of a church or home) painted by, or partly by, him.

Houckgeest initially specialized in painting imaginary church interiors and ornate Renaissance buildings rendered in somber browns and reds, which bear little resemblance to his revolutionary works painted in Delft. The reasons for Houckgeest's sudden evolution have intrigued art historians, but adequate explanations remain elusive. The contrast in style between the first works and those painted in Delft is so great that it appears unlikely that his style shifted without some external influence.
