Johannes Spruyt

Johannes Spruyt is a Dutch Golden Age artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Ashmolean Museum.

Dutch still-life painter Johannes Spruyt worked in the 1600s, filling canvases with birds and landscapes. One of his actual works is A Pair of Ducks in a Landscape, an oil painting from 1659. You’ll see the careful detail typical of Dutch Golden Age art, soft light on feathers, quiet water, and a wide sky that feels like a real place.
