Carel de Vogelaer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carel de Vogelaer (1653, Maastricht - 8 August 1695, Rome) was a Dutch painter of the Baroque period primarily active in Italy.
He was born in Maastricht, but Vogelaer moved between 1671 and 1675 to Rome, where he shared a house with fellow Dutch painter Anthoni Schoonjans in de via Margutta and trained or worked in the studio of Carlo Maratta. Here he was called Carlo de' Fiori or Carlo dei Fiori for his paintings of still life themes such as flowers or game. His Dutch nickname was Distelbloem ("thistle flower").
