About painter
dutch painter
Utrecht 1586 - 1666 Utrecht
Painter of genre scenes, generally of peasants, views and landscapes of villages and towns (including some winter landscapes) and some religious and allegorical subjects (mainly at the beginning of his career).

Droochsloot was a versatile and productive painter. The central museum in his hometown of Utrecht holds 15 of his paintings, showing the diversity of his work, many other museums exhibit his works
Our painting represents a scene that took place during the Eighty Years' War. This Dutch War of Independence from Spain was a long, slow war that lasted from 1568 to 1648. The war began with a Protestant uprising in Flanders and Holland against the Spanish...
