The following biography is from askArt:
Johannes Rosierse was born in 1818. He was an artist of the 19th century, and painted primarily genre scenes. His most important subject were interior images with staffage.
He focused on individual figures, or on groups arranged by candlelight in dark interiors. He frequently painted kitchens, presenting a synopsis of food such as fruits and vegetables en passant.
Johannes Rosierse passed away in 1901. Works of the artist can be seen in the museum of his hometown Dordrecht, as well as in Musée Fabre in the Southern French Montpellier.
