Pieter Jansz van Asch (1603 - 6 June 1678 (buried)) was a Dutch Golden Age painter.

Biography

He was born at Delft, the son of the portrait painter Jan van Asch and joined the Guild of St. Luke in 1623.[1] According to Arnold Houbraken, he specialized in small landscapes, but his productivity was hampered by caring for his parents.[2] Jan Verkolje knew him and made a mezzotint of him. The city of Delft paid him 100 guilders for a schoorsteenstuk or overmantel piece in the City Hall known as the Prinsenhof.[3]

His works are influenced by the painters Pieter de Bloot, Jan Both, Joachim Govertsz Camphuysen, Anthonie Jansz van der Croos, Jan Josefsz van Goyen, and Jan Gabrielsz Sonjé.[1] He in turn influenced the painter Jacobus Coert.[1] He died and was buried in his home town of Delft.[1]


Legacy

van Asch has paintings in public collections including four in the United Kingdom.[4]
