About Cornelis Dusart

Cornelis Dusart (1660–1704) was a Dutch painter, printmaker, and draftsman active in Haarlem during the late Dutch Golden Age. Born on April 25, 1660, the son of Jan Dusart, organist of Saint Bavo's Church, Dusart spent his entire career in Haarlem, where he also operated as an art dealer and collector. He is recognized as a genre painter whose depictions of peasant life, tavern interiors, and village scenes continued the pictorial traditions established by earlier Haarlem masters. Dusart's work as a printmaker was especially significant; he produced etchings that circulated widely and helped disseminate Dutch genre imagery across Europe. He also maintained substantial collections of prints, drawings, paintings, and Italian works. Dusart died in Haarlem on October 1, 1704, and was buried in the Grote Kerk. His monogram, CD, appears on many attributed works.

Common works and media

Dusart is best known for oil-on-panel or canvas genre paintings depicting peasants, tavern-goers, and rural village life. He also produced a substantial body of etchings, many reproducing compositions by earlier Haarlem artists, as well as chalk and ink drawings of similar subjects. Collectors may encounter individual prints, small-format paintings, and occasional larger compositions at auction. Works on paper, including preparatory drawings and finished prints, represent a significant portion of his surviving output.

Market and appraisal context

Cornelis Dusart's works appear with moderate regularity at auction, typically categorized under Old Master Paintings or Old Master Prints and Drawings. His oil paintings of genre subjects tend to attract the strongest interest, while his etchings and drawings are more widely available and generally more accessible to collectors. Key factors affecting appraisal include the distinction between original paintings and reproductive prints, the presence of the CD monogram, documented provenance, condition relative to the work's age, and the quality of the genre scene depicted. Attribution should be confirmed by a specialist, as Dusart's style closely follows that of his Haarlem contemporaries. Comparable auction results from major houses provide the most reliable pricing context for any individual work.
