Jan Holtrop
Jan Holtrop was born on October 5, 1917, in Friesland. When he was five years old, his family moved to Hilversum. Holtrop soon apprenticed to the renowned landscape painter Johan Frederik Cornelis Scherrewitz, who had a studio at Soestdijkerstraatweg, Hilversum. Scherrewitz's work was strongly influenced by the Hague School. His style and sense of color are again clearly reflected in the work of Holtrop, although often Holtrop worked more with a sunnier, blonder ontwikkelde pallet. Holtrop’s paintings were first sold at an art trade on the Brink. In 1948, his work was exhibited in the gallery Gebr Koch Rotterdam. Holtrop had a strong preference for the landscape of the Veluwe and the Gooi Brabant. His style remained close to that of his teacher. In the 60s, he shifted his field for the Oosterbeek area. Holtrop also painted landscapes in Germany and Austria. Holtrop’s work was often exhibited in the Netherlands and Germany.
