    Born in Antwerp, 1935, Willem Leo Jan Dolphyn was the only son of Victor Dolphyn and Anna de Ridder. William clearly already had painting in his blood with a father already established as an artist.

    • Instantly recognisable as the master of still life painting in Antwerp, Willem Dolphyn has created some of the finest canvases ever produced in this historic city over the last eighty years.

      Demonstrating the sheer technical virtuosity in the handling of light, texture and atmosphere, his works contain a rich purity which sets them apart from others.

      Willem gained a great deal of experience and professional knowledge from his father Victor, who was a teacher at the Academy and the founder of the new Classic School of Traditional painting.

      This developed Willem’s keen understanding of composition, detail and colour.

      Since his first solo show in 1968, Willem’s paintings have been exhibited widely in Europe and Asia.

      Among his many achievements, the highlight was his appointment as Ambassador of Arts for the City of Antwerp.
