Wouter Crabeth I
Wouter Pietersz Crabeth (1510–1590), was a Dutch Renaissance glass painter. He was employed by the Janskerk (Gouda) during the Protestant Reformation, where he created six of the stained glass windows during the years 1555-1571. His windows, that he created in close collaboration with his brother Dirk Crabeth, are one of the reasons that the church was placed on the UNESCO list of monuments.
==Biography==
He and his talented brother Dirk were the sons of Pieter Dirckz of Gouda.〔(Bio sketch on Wouter in the Rijksmuseum of Amsterdam )〕 They came from a painting family that was employed in the stained glass industry of Gouda. Archival evidence survives today showing orders of glass panes from
various Netherlands towns. Wouter's fame began when his brother became head builder in charge at the Janskerk, and he was hired to help with the window design for an ambitious series of windows depicting the life of St. John the Baptist. Wouter probably assisted his brother from 1555 onwards, but he only signed his own work after he took a trip to Italy, which made him a master painter in his own right. His paintings show better skill at perspective, and he often included architectural backgrounds that accentuated this. According to Houbraken, his work gave the viewer the impression of height, while Dirk's work gave the impression of depth.〔''Het geen Dirk doet door zyn diepzels, werkt Wouter uit door zyn hoogzels.'' - quote by Houbraken in (Dirk en Wouter Crabeth biography ) in ''De groote schouburgh der Nederlantsche konstschilders en schilderessen'' (1718) by Arnold Houbraken, courtesy of the Digital library for Dutch literature〕
His brother had no children, but Wouter had at least one son named Pieter, who became a mayor of Gouda. He in turn had a son, also named Wouter Pietersz, who became a painter like his namesake. This grandson Wouter Crabeth II also travelled to Italy, like his grandfather did before him. He also had a granddaughter by his son Pieter, named Maria Crabeth, who later married Reinier van Persijn, the painter and engraver from Alkmaar.
