Roelof Koets I (1592 - 1654)

Roelof Koets I

Roelof Koets I was a Dutch painter of the Golden Age of Dutch painting.

He was a member of the St. Luke's Guild in Haarlem, and his son was the painter Andries Koets. Roelof Koets was a master of still life with fish, utensils and fruit, most often bunches of grapes.

A little later, another artist with the same name, who painted portraits, lived and worked in Zwolle, Netherlands. To avoid confusion, he is called Roelof Koets II (1640-1725).
