Ernst Willem Jan Bagelaar

Ernst Willem Jan Bagelaar (16 September 1775 – 8 February 1837)[1] was a Dutch etcher.

Life

Bagelaar, who was born at Eindhoven in 1775, first entered the army, but early acquired a liking for the fine arts, and instructed himself in that of etching. He acquired further knowledge by travelling through Germany, and by a stay in Paris. Giving up soldiering, he retired to his property at Zon, near Eindhoven, where he died in 1837. His etchings, which are numerous, are executed in imitation of drawings. Many of them are landscapes from his own designs. The style of Jan Luyken had a special charm for him, and he possessed a considerable collection of his drawings. The following will show the variety of his subjects:

gollark: i.e. they nominally are but you cannot actually get them for that much, especially in quantity.
gollark: It's probably "$4" like the Pi Zero is "$5".
gollark: Technically, you can emulate any chip ever with sufficient computing power.
gollark: How would stuff work *better* hot? Doesn't that increase electromigration and evil badness?
gollark: WRONG.
