Gerard ter Borch

Dutch, 1617–1681
Gerard ter Borch was a Dutch Dutch Golden Age painter. 101 works are cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum, most of them oil paintings. Gerard ter Borch was born in Zwolle.
Gerard ter Borch (Dutch:; December 1617 – 8 December 1681), also known as Gerard Terburg (Dutch: ), was a Dutch Golden Age painter mainly of genre subjects. He influenced his fellow Dutch painters Gabriel Metsu, Gerrit Dou, Eglon van der Neer and Johannes Vermeer. According to Arthur K. Wheelock Jr., Ter Borch "established a new framework for subject matter, taking people into the sanctum of the home", showing the figures' uncertainties and expertly hinting at their inner lives. His influence as a painter, however, was later surpassed by Vermeer.
