About the artist:
Adriaan Marinus Geijp (also Geyp) Adriaan Marinus Geijp (also Geyp) (Middelburg, November 22, 1855 - The Hague, November 9, 1926) was a Dutch painter.
In Middelburg he was a house painter and decorative painter. Later he developed into a painter and took some drawing lessons at the Drawing Academy in Middelburg. He moved with his wife Margaretha Jenneke Krauz and two children to The Hague around 1880. His studio was located on the Hekkelaan. He continued to live there for the rest of his life in The Hague.
He got his drawing talent from his father Johan Frederik Geijp, but otherwise he was self-taught. Adriaan, or André, as he was also called, mainly painted landscapes, forest landscapes, beach and ice scenes. He was attracted to the Hague School.
He sold many of his paintings to a Rotterdam dealer. He and his wife had a total of seventeen children, most of whom did not live to be old. With his painting talent he made many paintings, a number of which have been acquired by various museums and are also exhibited there. The work and style of Adriaan Marinus Geijp has been copied many times. A monograph on Geijp is currently being worked on.
