Description from the seller
Automatically translated from Dutch into English
Bernard Leemker taught himself the craft in The Hague, working as a painter, illustrator and commercial artist, and drawing inspiration from Willy Sluiter and Piet van der Hem.

He also painted Spanish market scenes and Zeeland women in traditional costume.
This harbour view of Mykonos, dated 1935, depicts the harbour of Mykonos Town with, possibly, the Agios Nikolaos Church in the background, and fishing boats drawn up on the beach.
