Philip Fruytiers

Family on a Terrace, possibly including a self-portrait

Philip Fruytiers [1] (1610–1666) was a Flemish Baroque painter and engraver. Until the 1960s, he was especially known for his miniature portraits in watercolor and gouache. Since then, several large canvases signed with the monogram PHF have been ascribed to him.[2] These new findings have led to a renewed appreciation for his contribution to the Antwerp Baroque.[3]
