Bernardus Johannes Blommers (The Hague, January 30, 1845 - The Hague, December 12, 1914) was a Dutch etcher and painter. His early paintings were mostly genre works depicting fishermen and their wives, heavily influenced by Jozef Israëls. The later works (from about 1890) are more loosely painted, although maritime and genre scenes remained the primary subject matter. His work was critically successful during his lifetime, being sought after by English, Scottish and American collectors.
