Pieter Boel (1626-1674) was a Flemish Baroque painter who specialised in lavish still lifes.
Boel was born in Antwerp. He probably went to Italy in 1650. In 1668, he worked for Charles Le Brun (1619-1690) in his first tapestry making studio. According to Arnold Houbraken, whose source was his picture in Cornelis de Bie's book Het Gulden Cabinet, he specialized in painting animals. He died in Paris. Large Vanitas - Still-Life 1663(1663)
