Gerrit Willem van Blaaderen - Provence Matin - Sold

Gerrit Willem van Blaaderen ( 1873 – 1935) In different periods of his artistic development, he is considered part of the Laren School, successively the Bergen School of painting. Van Blaaderen has lived and worked in Amstelveen, Paris (he exhibited on the Salon d'Automne in 1911), London, Italy, France, Bloemendaal, Huizen, Laren, Bergen and was married to the painter Riet Hoogendijk. He was an admirer of Cézanne, student of Hendrik Hulk and Willem Vaarzon Morel. He made figure representations, landscapes, portraits, still lifes, animal representations, and cityscapes. During his Laren period, he painted in the style of impressionism. He was also influenced by the painter Ferdinand Hart Nibbrig. He did not follow pointillism exactly, instead of dots he made short stripes. That period in his painting career is considered part of the Larense School. Later he is counted as part of the Bergen School. The works of this Dutch art direction are characterized by figuration with cubist influences and an expressionist touch. Van Blaaderen is registered at the National Historical Service Documentation (RKD.nl), mentioned in the well-known arts encyclopedia E. Benezit and the lexicon Pieter A. Scheen.
