Coenraet Roepel (1678, The Hague – 1748, The Hague), was an 18th-century fruit and flower still life painter from the Northern Netherlands.

Biography

Fruit still life in a niche

According to Jan van Gool he was an avid gardener and his love of flowers made him become a pupil of Constantijn Netscher so that he could paint the flowers and other plants in his garden. [1] He travelled to Düsseldorf in 1716 and received a gold chain and medal from Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine for his work. [1] He had high hopes of painting more for the elector, but his patron died the same year, so Coenraet returned to the Netherlands. [1] On his return, he became a member of the Confrerie Pictura in 1718 and was very successful in The Hague, receiving as much as 1,000 guilders for a work, but was later eclipsed by the flower painter Jan van Huysum. [1]

According to the RKD he was trained in the Confrerie in the years 1698-1699 and first became a member there in 1711. [2] His pupil was Pieter Terwesten. [2]

The Lazaro Galdiano Museum in Madrid owns a couple of Still lifes, one with fruits and the other a Vase with Flowers, [3] from Roepel.
