Hendrick ter Brugghen Utrecht or The Hague 1588‚1629 UtrechtOf all of the northern Caravaggisti, particularly those painters associated with the city of Utrecht, Hendrick ter Brugghen is regarded as the most important and influential member of the group. The collecting habits of American institutions reflect a high estimation of his art, for his paintings quickly became prized museum possessions in the decade following World War II. Most pictures in America by this master fall into his later, mature phase. The five paintings by Ter Brugghen in the exhibition reflect this general tendency, beginning with David Praised by the Israelite Woman, dated 1623. David is depicted with the severed head of Goliath in his left hand, a sword held in his right. He faces the women of Israel who have assembled before him to sing his praises. As David Steel has noted, "The theme of David being praised with song and music would have been particularly appealing to Ter Brugghen, who portrayed singers and musicians in approximately one-third of his surviving works." The Old Testament source for the scene is 1 Samuel (17: 54, 18: 6‚7).... The Cleveland Museum of Art

Ter Brugghen (Art online - La città dell'arte): Pittore olandese nato a Deventer nel 1588, Hendrick si forma con il manierista Abraham Bloemaert e sulle incisioni di Durer e Luca di Leida. Tra il 1604 e il 1614 soggiorna a Roma collocandosi tra gli artisti che stanno elaborando un linguaggio pittorico ispirato ai modi di Caravaggio. Dopo il 1620, tende a soluzioni chiare e luminose come nella Chiamata di san Matteo di Utrecht, del 1621, e ancora in altre opere che ne fanno un precursore della scuola di Delft. Muore a Utrecht nel 1629
