Ewoud de Kat (1904-1974) Born in Vlissingen and took drawing lessons from Gerard Jacobs there. He attended the Academy for BK in Rotterdam. He lived and worked in Vlissingen, Rotterdam and from 1935 in Haarlem. He was a painter, draftsman and watercolorist in a style reminiscent of the Flemish expressionists. Subjects included landscapes, seascapes, farmers and fishermen. During a stay in Paris, he came into contact with the painters of the 'Ecole de Paris' and started to depict his subjects more abstractly. In the twilight of his career he started making tapestries and collages.
This work comes from a lot of a number of (sometimes signed) works from the studio of Ewoud de Kat.
