BROUWER, or BRAUWES, See also: born at See also: Haarlem, of very humble parents, who bound him apprentice to the painter Frans See also: Hals
.
Brouwer had an admirable See also: eye for colour, and much spirit in design; and these gifts his master appears to have turned to his-own profit, while his pupil was See also: half starved
.
As the result of this ungenerous
treatment, Brouwer was frequently brought into low See also: company and dissipated scenes, which he delineated with See also: great spirit and vivid colouring in his pictures
.
The unfortunate artist died in a hospital at See also: Antwerp at the early age of See also: thirty-two, consequently his See also: works are few and rarely met with
.
The largest collection of his masterpieces is in the Pinakothek at See also: Munich
.
