AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Johannes Theodorus “Jan” Giesen (1900–1983) was a Dutch painter, graphic artist, sculptor and glass artist from The Hague. He studied at the Tekeninstituut Bik en Vaandrager and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague. From 1929 to 1946 he taught at the Hague Art Academy.

Giesen was a member of the artists' association De Grafische in Amsterdam. His work remains valued, even though abstract art became dominant after World War II. Earlier, there had been an exhibition of Jan Giesen at Museum Panorama Mesdag.

Beautiful work, delivered in a nice frame, as shown separately in the photos. It is neatly packed including the frame and shipped, ready to hang on the wall.
