Pieter van Laer

Pieter van Laer was a Dutch painter of the Golden Age, a talented genre painter and printmaker. Pieter van Laer introduced a new genre of painting, bambocciade (after his nickname of bamboccio, little boy). These are paintings depicting scenes from everyday life of ordinary people. In his works, Pieter van Lahr depicted with humor, and sometimes with grotesque and sarcasm, the everyday life of the lower classes of society. Pieter van Lahr is also known for his landscapes and animal representations - he created two series of engravings with animals. He also painted several battle scenes.
