The Blauwpoort in Leiden in the winter, ca. 1660
Abraham Beerstraaten (1643 in Amsterdam – 1666), was a Dutch Golden Age painter of winter scenes.
Abraham was baptized in the Noorderkerk on 4 October as the son of Jan Abrahamsz Beerstraaten.[1] In 1662, together with his father, he traveled to Friesland, Groningen and many other places in Holland. He died before September 1666.[2][3] Abraham Storck who cooperated with him, inherited his unfinished paintings of the town hall.[4][5]
Almost all sources and literature give divergent and often contradictory information. His works are confused with those of his father and brother Anthonie Beerstraaten.[6]
