Gerard Soest Art
1600-1681
Gerard Soest, also known as Gerald Soest, was a portrait painter who was active in England during the late 17th century. He is most famous for his portraits of William Shakespeare and Samuel Butler but painted many members of the English gentry. Soest was traditionally thought to have come from Soest, Germany in Westphalia but was probably from Soest, Netherlands, being Dutch by birth and training. He had been in England by the late 1640s, and his paintings of that time show the influence of William Dobson. Soest's earliest known work is dated 1646.
