Also known as
Egbert Lievensz. van der Poel
Egbert van der Poel (1621–1664), also indexed as Egbert Lievensz. van der Poel, was a Dutch painter working during the seventeenth-century Dutch Golden Age. He is associated with genre and landscape painting, but public collection records reveal a more specific range of recurring scenes. These include fires observed at night, burning villages, frozen canals populated by skaters, beaches where fishermen sell their catch, and views related to Delft and the city’s destructive explosion of 1654. Such subjects combine closely observed daily activity with dramatic weather, light, or civic events. Museum holdings catalogued by Art UK show that his paintings remain represented in British public collections, while Wikidata, Getty ULAN, VIAF, RKD, and museum authority records help distinguish him from similarly named artists. Collectors may encounter his work through Dutch Old Master painting sales, especially among landscapes, winter scenes, coastal subjects, and nocturnal fire compositions.

Common works and media
Public collection records most clearly document paintings: night fires and burning villages, frozen waterways with figures, skating scenes, beaches, fish markets, fishermen, maritime settings, and views of Delft. A Dutch-language biographical source also describes van der Poel as a draftsman and watercolorist, although those work types need stronger confirmation when encountered in appraisal or auction contexts.
Market and appraisal context
An appraisal of a work associated with van der Poel should begin with the object itself and compare its medium, subject, composition, and documentation with securely catalogued examples. Public collections record several recognizable subject groups, including nocturnal fires, winter and skating landscapes, fishing beaches, and scenes connected with Delft. Comparable auction lots can add evidence through their descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, and stated attribution, but artist-level records alone do not establish a particular object’s authorship or value. The collected sources do not provide enough major-auction-house analysis to support broad claims about price direction or scarcity. Condition, dimensions, provenance, attribution status, and the circumstances of each sale therefore require separate object-level research.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Dutch Old Master paintings
- Fire and night scenes
- Winter landscapes and skating scenes
- Beach, fishing, and maritime scenes
Value drivers
- Subject and scene type, including night fires, winter activity, beach markets, fishing scenes, and views connected with Delft
- Work type and medium, assessed against documented paintings and any securely identified works on paper
- Comparable public auction records, including lot descriptions, sale dates, and realized prices when available
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack contains no detailed major-auction-house biography or lot analysis, so it does not support price-trend or scarcity claims.
- Condition, dimensions, provenance, attribution status, and individual sale circumstances must be examined for the specific object; they cannot be inferred from artist-level records.
- Drawings and watercolors are mentioned only by a Wikipedia biography in the collected pack and therefore require stronger object-level confirmation.
