Allaert van Everdingen was a Dutch Golden Age painter and printmaker, known for his etchings and mezzotints. Van Everdingen was also an art dealer, and the brother of Caesar van Everdingen.
According to his biographer, Arnold Houbracken, Allaert was the pupil of Roelandt Savery in Utrecht and Pieter de Molyn in Haarlem; both painters certainly influenced his work. Van Everdingen is represented in the following collections: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam; Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, Netherlands; National Gallery, London; Courtauld Institute of Art, London; The Wallace Collection, London; Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge; The Louvre, Paris; Université de Liège Collections; Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna; National Museum in Warsaw; Hermitage Museum, National Gallery of Armenia, Yerevan, Armenia; Saint Petersburg; Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, amongst others.
