Abraham de Verwer (Haarlem, 1585 – Amsterdam, 1650) was a Dutch Golden Age painter and draughtsman. He produced cityscapes, river landscapes and seascapes. He is mentioned as a cabinetmaker in his wife's will from 1607. He probably only began painting later in life. His teacher is unknown. His earliest dated work is from 1610. While it is unclear when he moved to Amsterdam, he is first mentioned as a painter in the city in 1617. Abraham de Verwer (also known as Abraham de Verwer or de Verweer) van Burghstrate was in France in 1637 and 1639, or possibly for the entire period. He painted a number of cityscapes in Paris and other cities. He then returned to Amsterdam, buying a house on the Prinsengracht in 1642. He later lived on Warmoesstraat, where he died in 1650. He was the father and teacher of the painter Justus de Verwer.
