Dutch, 1620–1672

Abraham Susenier was a Dutch Dutch Golden Age artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Ashmolean Museum. Abraham Susenier was born in Leiden.

Abraham Susenier (c. 1620 in Leiden – 1666/72 in Dordrecht), was a Dutch Golden Age painter. According to Houbraken he was a still life painter especially good at painting silverwork, who joined the Dordrecht Guild of Saint Luke in 1646, the same year as Ary Huybertsz Verveer (history painter), Gerard de Jager (a seascape and "pond" painter), and Arnout Elsevier (a landscape and "fire" painter). According to the RKD his monogram "AB S" was mistaken for Abraham Steenwyck or Abraham van Beijeren up to the 20th century, and only recently have his works been reattributed.

A Dordrecht estate inventory from 1682 of the Van Slingelandt family mentions 18 works by Susenier, mostly landscapes.
