Useful information
Cornelis Troost (1697-1750)
Cornelis Troost (1697-1750) was the last genre painter. His colour is bright and his design witty, but his drawing leaves much to be desired.He gives, however, a clear insight of 18th century manners, as they had become thoroughly Frenchified. His pastels in the Mauritshuis are exceedingly amusing.
