About the Item

Cornelis le Mair (Netherlands, Eindhoven, July 3rd 1944) is a Dutch painter. This Classic painter is famous because of his 17th century paintings. You can see him in his house on one of the pictures. This painting is a result of a study after a sketch of the famous 17th Century painter 'Willem Kalf'. Le Mair did find an old sketch on paper. Kalf never made a painting of it. le Mair did collect all pieces he saw on the sketch, builded the still-life in his studio in his house and did create this beautiful piece of art. As a child, Le Mair already developed a talent for drawing. After completing high school he went to study at the art academy in 's-Hertogenbosch where he hoped to improve his painting techniques. He left the academy because, in his opinion, "free expression" was taught almost exclusively. He was advised to transfer to the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, where the old painter's craft would still be learned. In professor Victor Dolphijn he found a teacher in the art of craftsmanship of old masters. In 1968, Le Mair graduated cum laude in the field of portrait, still life and figure painting. In 1973, Le Mair established himself as an independent painter in an old farmhouse in the vicinity of his hometown Eindhoven in the Netherlands. He calls the style in which he works traditional. Cornelis le Mair is very successful and famous because of his work, his house and his ideas about art. He has exhibitions in galleries worldwide and museums that attract many visitors. In addition to his profession, painting portraits, figures, still lifes and a single landscape, he is involved in periods with architecture, making images, building musical instruments and making furniture. He also has several publications on painting to his name, even a book about his house is made. On one of the pictures you can experience the artist in front of the painting, during an artist talk in our gallery. This painting will be shipped worldwide for free in a custom made wooden crate as seen on the last picture. if there is need for additional information feel free to contact us, we will be happy to help you.
