Arnold van Boonen (16 December 1669 – 2 October 1729) was a Dutch portrait painter.
Life
He was born at
Duke of Marlborough, and several others. He painted some large pictures for the halls of the different companies at Amsterdam and Dordrecht. He died in 1729.[1]
The Dresden Gallery has seven works by him, and the Woman Singing in the Lille Gallery is also attributed to him. His son, Kasper van Boonen, also painted portraits, but in no way proved himself equal to his father.[1]
