Van Kalraet was born and died in Dordrecht.
He changed his style several times, and in later life took to painting Rhine landscapes in the manner of Herman Saftleven. He was still painting when Houbraken was writing his book, but it was more a hobby than a business for him. He resided throughout his life in Dordrecht, and made copies after the landscape artists Cuyp and Saftleven, but also January Both, Cornelis van Poelenburch, Philip Wouwerman and Willem de Heusch.
