List of Dutch painters explained

This is a list of Dutch painters who were born and/or were primarily active in the Netherlands. For artists born and active in the Southern Netherlands, see the List of Flemish painters. The artists are sorted by century and then alphabetically by last name. In general, artists are included that are mentioned at the ArtCyclopedia[1] website, in the Grove Dictionary of Art,[2] and/or whose paintings regularly sell for over $20,000 at auctions.[3] Active painters are therefore underrepresented, while more than half of the artists are baroque painters of the 17th century, roughly corresponding to the Dutch Golden Age. The names of older artists often have many different spellings; the preferred spelling is used as listed in the Netherlands Institute for Art History[4] database, but several painters are listed twice when their common alternative names are alphabetically far apart.__TOC__
