Abraham Storck Biography
(bapt Amsterdam, 17 April 1644; bur Amsterdam, 8 April 1708). Brother of (1) Jacobus Storck. He trained and worked with his father and became a member of the Guild of St Luke in Amsterdam. In 1694 he married Neeltje Pieters van Meyservelt, a surgeon’s widow. His river and coastal scenes were greatly influenced by Ludolf Bakhuizen in the pictorial treatment of sky and water, as, for example, in the Shipping Scene (Dublin, N.G.) and the Roads of Enkhuizen (Amsterdam, Rijksmus., A 1521). Abraham also absorbed influences from other well-known Amsterdam marine painters, notably Willem van de Velde the younger and Jan Abrahamsz. Beerstraten. The Beerstraten and Storck families were close friends and distantly related by marriage. In his paintings of sea battles Abraham emulated Jan Beerstraten’s somewhat crowded and agitated compositions. His stylistic dependence on the older artist is demonstrated by a comparison of Beerstraten’s Battle of Terheide, 10 August 1653 (Amsterdam, Rijksmus.) with Storck’s Four-day Battle between the Dutch and English Fleets, 12–14 June 1666 (London, N. Mar. Mus.).
