Abraham Lutma

Abraham Lutma was an artist active primarily between 1650 and 1669. Working during the Dutch Golden Age, his surviving works documented in major collections consist chiefly of prints and drawings, suggesting a specialization in graphic arts and portraiture.

The represented portion of Lutma's oeuvre features five works held across prominent international institutions. These pieces focus on contemporaneous figures, serving as important visual biographical records. The documented works include four prints and one drawing, primarily focusing on significant individuals like the architect Jacob van Campen, captured in the entries Portrait of Jacob van Campen and Portret van Jacob van Campen. Further notable subjects are seen in Portret van Paulus Willemsz. van Vianen and the drawing Portret van Janus Lutma de Oude op 84-jarige leeftijd.

Lutma's artistic legacy is confirmed by the institutional acquisition of his work. His prints and drawings are held by major collections, including the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and the Art Institute of Chicago. As artifacts from the seventeenth century, many Abraham Lutma prints are now considered public domain resources, allowing institutions to provide high-quality prints and downloadable artwork for research and study worldwide.
