Pieter Jansz Quast (Amsterdam, 1606Amsterdam, 29 maggio 1647) è stato un pittore olandese.


Biografia


Nato ad Amsterdam, si trasferì in giovane età a L'Aia, dove si iscrisse alla gilda dei pittori locali nel 1634. Ritornato a Amsterdam verso il 1644, vi morì nel 1647 in completa povertà.

Pittore ed incisore di scene di genere satirico e grottesco, secondo il gusto di Adriaen Brouwer e di van der Venne, ma che tuttavia Quast carica di valori grafico-plastici più che pittorici, usando chiaroscuri e toni chiari fortemente contrapposti.

[en] Pieter Quast

Pieter Jansz. Quast (1605 or '06 – buried 29 May 1647) was a Dutch Golden Age painter and draughtsman, mostly producing small social genre paintings, ranging from elegant merry companies to guardroom scenes and (most numerous) groups of peasants, in a variety of styles which can be related to those of leading artists in these genres, but with personal aspects in the colouring and style. They "are heavily and powerfully rendered in warm shades of brown, set off by strong local colouring in the principal figures. His successful peasant scenes are characterized by the use of strong chiaroscuro and a gentle, harmonious palette. The caricatural quality of Quast’s peasants recalls the work of his fellow-resident of The Hague, Adriaen van de Venne, but Quast’s looser style and many of his individual types are closer to the paintings of Adriaen Brouwer, as well as of Adriaen van Ostade, to whom Quast’s best work has sometimes been ascribed".[1] He also produced finished drawings for sale, often on parchment, and these included landscapes and cityscapes. Some of his works were engraved, though it is not clear if he did this himself.[1]
