Gerrit van Bloclant

Gerrit van Bloclant (1578–1650) was a Dutch Renaissance painter.

Not much is known about Gerrit van Bloclant's life except through his works. He primarily painted still lifes of flowers,[1] and displayed his skills in representing with exactness the colors, shapes and textures. The realism utilized helped contribute to botanical studies in the Netherlands.[2] One work executed by Gerrit van Bloclant Flower-Piece is part of the National Inventory of Continental European Paintings collection.[2]
