Meijer de Haan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jacob Meijer de Haan (1852-1895) was a Dutch artist born into a successful Jewish family of biscuit manufacturers, close to the study of religion, music and art. He had already had some success in the Netherlands as a painter of Jewish genre, when in winter 1888, accompanied by Isaacson, he went to Paris to continue his studies. There he met Pissarro, Theo van Gogh, and Paul Gauguin, back from Arles, whom De Haan accompanied to Brittany - first to Pont-Aven, later to Le Pouldu, where De Haan evidently had a liaison with Marie Henry, the owner ofe the Buvette du plage, where Meijer de Haan and Gauguin lodged in 1890-1891.
