Description from the seller
Witkamp studied at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam (1871-1877), as a pupil of, among others, August Allebé and Barend Wijnveld. He was also influenced by Johan Adolf Rust and Jacob Olie, teachers at the first Amsterdam craft school partly founded by Witkamp’s father. He undertook travels to Belgium, France and Germany. In 1882 he won the Willink van Collenprijs, a prize for young painters.
Witkamp was friends with Nicolaas van der Waay, with whom he shared a studio for some time on Koningsplein. Witkamp, Van der Waay, Jan Hillebrand Wijsmuller, Carel Dake and a number of others formed together the Gezelschap M.A.B. (named after Michelangelo Buonarroti). He was also a (board) member of Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam. Together with Rust and Van der Waay he provided the decorations to and in the Paviljoen der stad Amsterdam and the Pavillon de la Presse at the International Colonial and Export Trade Exhibition of 1883.[6]
