Matthijs Maris
1839 – 1917
Dutch painter, part of a family of painters, brother of Jacobus Maris. In 1851 he was apprenticed for one year to Isaac Elink Sterk (1808-1871); from 1852 to 1855 he attended classes at the Academie in The Hague, and in 1854 he joined the studio of Louis Meijer (1809-1866), where his brother Jacobus was also working. It was due to Meijer that in 1855 he was granted a monthly allowance by Queen Sophie to continue his training in Antwerp, where he moved in with Jacobus.
