Adrianus van Blyk

Adrianus van Blyk was a well-known fine art painter and seems to have temporarily worked in Amsterdam. He was a follower of the Dutch School and specialized in the depiction of Dutch coastal scenes. Regarding his technical proficiency and delicate compositional practice, his works seem to be deeply related to paintings by Hermanus Koekkoek. (cbo)
