Evert Collier (26 January 1642 – few days before 8 September 1708) was a Dutch Golden Agestill-lifepainter known for vanitas and trompe-l'œil paintings.
His first name is sometimes spelled "Edward" or "Edwaert" or "Eduwaert" or "Edwart," and his last name is sometimes spelled "Colyer" or "Kollier".
Life
Collier was baptized Evert Calier in Breda, North Brabant.[1] He was trained in Haarlem, where his earliest paintings show the influence of Vincent Laurensz van der Vinne, who became a member of the Haarlem Guild of St.
Luke in 1649, and whose son Laurens van der Vinne listed "Evert Colier" in 1702 as one of the Haarlem guild members who had known his father.[2] Van der Vinne was probably his teacher when Collier registered with the Haarlem guild in 1664.[3] They both later influenced the Haarlem still-life painter Barend van Eisen.[1]
