Jan Abrahamsz Beerstraaten, a Dutch painter, was born on March 1, 1622. He is known for his marine art, particularly depicting events of the First Anglo-Dutch War and Dutch-Swedish War, as well as cityscapes and ports, capturing buildings that no longer exist. His work provides a glimpse into 17th-century Netherlands.
