Willem KALF (Rotterdam 1619 – Amsterdam 1693) was born in Rotterdam in 1619. He was the greatest still-life painter of his generation. Occasionally, throughout his life, he painted small scenes of kitchens and barns, but his most typical and most popular works were the so-called pronken (ostentatious) still-lifes that showed costly artifacts of metal, glass and porcelain. Kalf was in Paris between 1642 and 1646. In 1651 he married, at Hoom, a talented woman, Comelia Fluvier, who was a diamond- engraver, calligrapher and poet. In 1653 he settled in Amsterdam, where he worked until his death in 1693.
