He also worked under the pseudonym Jan van Coever and Louis van Straaten. He came of a family of well known artists. He was the grandson of Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek and cousin of the famous landscape painter Barend Cornelis Koekkoek and son of Hermanus Koekkoek the elder. Also his son Stephen Robert Koekkoek (1887-1934) would become a painter. He was taught the profession by his father in Amsterdam. In the 1860s he travelled regularly to London, where he moved too permanently in 1869. He had a gallery here and sold next to his own work also the works of his family members to the British public. He mainly focused on sea-, river and beach scenes. He painted in the romantic-realistic style. He preferred scenes of ships struggling in heavy sea. His later work is influenced by the Hague School. In his time in London he regularly painted under the name Jan van Couver and Louis van Straaten. You can view our full collection of these here.

Sulis Fine Art traces its origins back four generations. Benjamin Diamond opened a picture framing factory in Midtown Manhattan in the early 20th century. Originally known as Royal Art, the business worked closely with artists and museum institutions, developing a reputation for creating fine frames. Royal Art passed through the family and eventually evolved into Sulis, now run by Benjamin's grandson Bill, and his son Dan. Based in the South West of England, we source art from across the British Isles and ship worldwide. We handpick all our stock and we've grown into a ten-strong team of art historians, photographers, restorers, studio technicians and despatchers. We relocated to our Corsham studio in early 2020, leaving behind our small garden workshops in Bradford-on-Avon that had been our base for several successful years. Now located on the edge of the Cotswolds, our current home allows the team to work alongside our large catalogue of artworks, allowing us to provide you with fast global shipping and top-notch customer service. We are always striving to connect people with the art they love. Each week we add new artworks to our extensive catalogue, across all styles, subjects, colours and periods. At the heart of Sulis, we rescue and restore lost and forgotten works, giving you the opportunity to find unique pieces and discover art in a new and different way. View All Artworks View More -->
