Adriaan Lubbers Art

Dutch

Adriaan Lubbers was born in The Netherlands and was the son of a well-to-do estate agent. As a young man, he studied mechanical engineering, which took him to South America from 1911–14. By 1914, he realized that he wanted to return to The Netherlands to fulfil his lifelong dream of becoming an artist. His early art career included exhibiting his works in March 1922 in Amsterdam. During that period he settled with other artists in a farmhouse at Vierhouten. There he met painter Leo Gestel with whom he travelled to New York. At 33, Lubbers produced his first drawings which depicted New York’s landmarks in a realistic style. In order to survive in New York City, Lubbers worked odd jobs to support himself and his work. According to Italo Tovolato, he was a worker in a factory, a joiner, a herring peddler, a mechanic and a cabaret singer in Hoboken harbor. Some of these places are represented in his work. Lubbers lived in New York fewer than six years, mostly from 1916 to 1919 and 1926 to 1928, but during these stays, he made not only paintings but also copious drawings. He married Miep Gantvoort in New York in 1922. Lubbers died suddenly in 1954 of a brain haemorrhage while visiting Manhattan. His works remain a great record of New York architecture.

Original Signed 1920s Lithograph Print of Winter Landscape with Snow and Trees
By George Elbert Burr
Located in Denver, CO
This original signed lithograph print by George Elbert Burr (1859-1939) features a serene winter landscape with snow-covered trees, capturing the tranquil beauty of nature in a crisp winter scene. Known for his etchings and prints, Burr’s lithograph technique beautifully reflects his mastery in portraying the delicate interplay of light, snow, and shadows in the landscape. The print is signed by the artist and is presented in a custom frame with archival materials for long-lasting preservation. The framed dimensions measure 15 x 17 ¾ inches, with the image size itself being 7 ¼ x 10 ¼ inches. About the Artist: George Elbert Burr was a prolific American artist born in Monroe Falls, Ohio, in 1859. From an early age, Burr showed a passion for art, creating his first etchings using zinc scraps found in his father’s hardware store. Despite limited formal training—attending the Art Institute of Chicago for only a short period—Burr developed a unique and impactful style, focusing on etchings, lithographs, and illustrations. His early works often reflected the rural landscapes of Missouri, which he sketched during his travels on a railway pass. Burr gained recognition as an illustrator, working with notable publications like Scribner’s, Harper’s, and The Observer. In 1892, he began a monumental project illustrating the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s catalog of Heber R. Bishop’s jade collection, completing approximately 1,000 etchings. From 1896 to 1901, Burr and his wife traveled extensively across Europe, capturing landscapes and scenes from Sicily to North Wales. In 1906, Burr moved to Denver, Colorado, where he created the Mountain Moods series and began to document the American Southwest. His work often featured the rugged beauty of the Arizona desert and the New Mexico landscape. Burr’s Desert Set...
