Boetius Adams Bolswert
Boetius Adams Bolswert belongs to the circle of early seventeenth-century Netherlandish printmakers whose engravings carried biblical and allegorical subjects across Europe. Working in the medium of engraving with a burin, he translated narrative scenes into finely hatched compositions, and his style sits within the late Mannerist and early Baroque currents of his day. The archive holds a single sheet by his hand, an engraving dated 1595 in the museum's records, with The Judgment of Solomon standing as the example. Later impressions from the same plate may fall within that span.
