BIOGRAPHY
Antoon Jacobus Hovens (1907-1965): Born: 1907 in Venlo, Netherlands. Died: 1965 in Sint-Oedenrode, Netherlands. Occupation: Painter and polychromist.

Work: Hovens mainly painted genre pieces and landscapes, often in oil on canvas.

An example is the work Landscape with farm (dimensions: 50x65 cm without frame, 68x83 cm with frame), which is in good condition and is listed on auction platforms such as Catawiki. Polychromer: In addition to his work as a painter, Hovens was active as a polychromer at the Sint Oda sculpture factory in Sint-Oedenrode. Here he painted religious plaster statues, such as those of the Holy Family, Anthony of Padua, and other saints, often intended for churches, monasteries or living rooms (under glass domes). Biography: Hovens moved with his parents from Venlo to Sint-Oedenrode around 1920. His father, also Antoon Hovens (born 1880 in Venlo), was also a polychromer at the Sint Oda sculpture factory of the Swinkels company, located on the Borchmolendijk. Antoon Jacobus followed in his father's footsteps by both polychroming and painting. Recognition: His work is registered with the RKD (Netherlands Institute for Art History) and is mentioned in the artist lexicons of Pieter Scheen. (1907-1965). The older Antoon Hovens (1880-?) was his father, also active as a polychromist, but less known as a painter.

Sculpture factory Sint Oda: The factory produced religious statues, such as crucifixes, nativity scenes and bell jar statues, often commissioned by foundations such as "Het Kruis langs de weg" (financed by Antoon van Thiel). Hovens' work as a polychromist included painting these plaster and cement statues, including large groups such as Calvary statues in the churchyard of Sint-Oedenrode. Sources: Information about Hovens' work and biography is based on auction descriptions and historical documentation about the sculpture factory Sint Oda.
