Toon Tieland: an icon of Amersfoort
It was no coincidence that painter Toon Tieland competed for the title “Greatest Amersfoortter of All Time” during the city’s 750th anniversary in 2009. With his colorful, accessible work and extremely amiable character, he became an icon and ambassador of Amersfoort in the course of the twentieth century. Tieland was a true son of this city, where he was born and also died.
Inspiration from Flanders
His main inspiration was Flanders, the land of writer/artist Felix Timmermans, whose books dragged him through the war, and of the painters from picturesque Sint-Martens-Latem on the Leie River. This painting “On the Leie” is a wonderful example of this influence and shows the deep connection Tieland had with this region.
Why ‘On the Lys’ is a valuable addition
This painting is not only a work of art, but also a piece of history and a tribute to Toon Tieland’s inspirations. It is a valuable addition to any art collection and offers a unique opportunity to own a work by this beloved artist.
