Lodewijk Johannes Kleijn

Lodewijk Johannes Kleijn (1817 - 1897) was active/lived in Netherlands.  Lodewijk Kleijn is known for Bucolic landscape painting with figures and animals.

Lodewijk Johannes Kleijn is a painter of Dutch landscape genre, and especially known for compositions mixing figural elements – people and animals – with sweeping treatments of nature.

Kleijn came to painting in a period of resurgence within Dutch easel painting. A revival of interest in the Dutch 17th century masters came after the return of the House of Orange to Holland in 1813, and a move away from the influence of the French, which had previously dominated the visual arts. Encouraged by Willem I who wanted a national school of painting to flourish again, exhibitions of contemporary artists were promoted, the profession of painting was stimulated and the number of artists increased quickly.

L.J. Kleijn was born on 14th August, 1817 in the town of Loosduinen, close to The Hague. Little is known of the artist's earliest training but he must have shown great promise as he was admitted to the studio of the master painter Andreas Schelfhout (1787-1870) in The Hague.
