Cornelis Kees Terlouw (1890–1948) is a Dutch painter of the Dutch school. Born in Rotterdam, he began his artistic training there before working in Utrecht and The Hague. In 1926, he chose to settle permanently in France, where he spent the rest of his life until his death in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés. Strongly inspired by the Impressionist current, he built a solid reputation thanks to his river landscapes, his seascapes, and especially his remarkable port scenes. His work brilliantly captures the reflections of light on the water, the barges, and the tranquil atmosphere of the small French and Dutch canals. Beyond his outdoor landscapes, the artist also distinguished himself in still lifes of flowers, genre scenes, and rustic interiors with strong emotional charge.
