Cesar Pietersz, also known as Cesar Boetius van Everdingen (1616/17 - October 13, 1678), was a jewel of the Dutch art scene during the Golden Age. The elder brother of Allart van Everdingen and Jan van Everdingen, Cesar left a rich legacy of portrait and history painting that can be rediscovered today through the careful production of fine art prints.
Van Everdingen came from the picturesque town of Alkmaar and made his way to Utrecht to learn the finer points of painting under the tutelage of Jan Gerritsz van Bronckhorst. In 1632 he joined the prestigious painters' guild of Alkmaar and in 1636 produced his first known painting, which marked the beginning of an unprecedented artistic career. In 1648 he moved to Haarlem, where he joined the Guild of St. Luke and became part of the Civic Guard. Here he crossed paths with the famous Jacob van Campen and together they worked on the decoration of the Oranje Zaal (Orange Room) in the Huis ten Bosch.
But home drew Van Everdingen back, and so he returned to Alkmaar in 1658 to open a workshop and start his own school of young artists. His artistic legacy lives on through his students, including Jan Theunisz. Blanckerhoff, Adriaen Dekker, Hendrik Graauw and Thomas Heeremans. His life ended in his beloved hometown, where he was buried in the Grote or St. Laurenskerk.
Van Everdingen's works are widely distributed and can be admired in museums and private homes throughout the Netherlands. Some of his impressive pieces are on display at the Stedelijk Museum in Alkmaar, and art prints of these masterpieces are also in high demand. His impressive painting "Vertumnus and Pomona" from 1637-1640 has found its way to the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid. Each of these works is a testament to Van Everdingen's unparalleled talent and ability to tell stories through brushwork. In reproducing these works as fine art prints, his vision and legacy is done justice at the highest level.
