Nikolaus Knüpfer

Nicolaus Knüpfer was a Dutch painter of the second third of the 17th century of German origin. He is known as a genre painter, a representative of the Dutch school of painting.

Inspired by Rembrandt, Knüpfer created small-scale paintings of biblical, literary, mythological, and historical themes, as well as depicting genre scenes and bacchanalia, including works with erotic overtones. The figures in his paintings were often depicted in unusual poses with flowing lines. His paintings can be seen today in galleries in Braunschweig, Kassel, Dresden, Copenhagen and the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.
