Willem Jacobus Boogaard was a Dutch Painter, known for figure, rural and genre painting.
An ostler or hostler is a groom or stableman, who is employed in a stable to take care of horses, usually at an inn.
It traces to c.1386, meaning "one who tends to horses at an inn", is derived from Anglo-French hostiler (modern French hostelier), itself from Medieval Latin hostilarius "the monk who entertains guests at a monastery", from hospitale "inn"
