Aelbert Jacobsz Cuyp (1620 –  1691)

• Was a Dutch Golden Age painter, producing mainly landscapes.
• Cuyp was born in Dordrecht on 20 October 1620.
• His father Jacob Gerritsz Cuyp was his first teacher.
• He is especially known for his large views of Dutch riverside scenes in a golden early morning or late afternoon light.
• Cuyp signed many of his works but rarely dated them.
• A phenomenal number of paintings are ascribed to him, some of which are likely to be by other masters of the golden landscape, such as Abraham Calraet, whose initials A.C. may be mistaken for Cuyp's.
• The displayed painting is a crop from: Aelbert Jacobsz Cuyp, River Landscape with Riders, 1653/1657.
