Description
Realistic acrylic painting of the Dutch painter Cornelis Vreedenburg with his painting Moored Sailboat, painted by the Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering - the original painting is 90 x 120 cm and available for purchase.
Cornelis Vreedenburgh (Woerden, August 25, 1880 - Laren, June 27, 1946) was a Dutch painter. He is considered to belong to the Laren School.
He received his first drawing lessons from his father, Gerrit Vreedenburgh, born in Bodegraven, 1849-1922, who had a painting business and painted a lot himself. Later he received advice from W.B. Tholen and Paul Arntzenius. Vreedenburgh had a penchant for water landscapes. Together with painter Tholen, he regularly went out to paint inland waterways and rivers, such as the area around Kaag in the Kagerplassen. A brother of Cornelis Vreedenburgh, Herman Vreedenburgh was also a painter.
After his marriage to the painter M. Schotel they both spent some time in the then unknown Saint-Tropez. Back in the Netherlands they first settled in Hattem and then in 1918 in Laren in the province of Groningen. Vreedenburg regularly returned to Amsterdam, the city that continued to fascinate him with its picturesque canals.
During study trips to Palestine and a commissioned trip to the "Holy Land" of Israel, he made a large number of sketches and studies in watercolor and oil.
His best known "Laren" work is The Little Pub. This painting, produced in 1921, shows the interior of Hotel Hamdorff, where mainly the Laren and Blaricum painters met.
Queen Wilhelmina bought two paintings by Vreedenburg in 1937: Cows in the Meadow and Prince Hendrikkade. The latter work was taken away by the occupying forces during the war, but no one has ever been able to find out exactly where it went after that.
