Artist
Daniël Mijtens cel Bătrân
Daniël Mijtens cel Bătrân is a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Brukenthal National Museum.
A round-faced Dutchman in a ruffled collar liked to paint himself squinting at his own reflection, brush poised, hand twitchy. His tiny self-portrait feels like a quick sketch you’d find in an attic, not a grand studio piece. Hunt down his Autoportret and you’ll see why he belongs here: it’s the kind of work that makes you lean in and whisper, “I could do that too,” while secretly feeling proud you noticed.
