Julien Landa was born in Rotterdam, Holland
in 1947. Up until the age of 35, he seemed to
be in search of a quest in life. After many years
as a self-employed photographer and some
traveling, he returned to his native town,
drastically changing his life by taking up a new
artistic challenge as a working painter in oils. In
his painting he found the fulfillment he had
been looking for. In the finished works of Julien
Landa, his affinity to the Dutch Masters
Rembrandt and Vermeer is clearly evident. His
fine still life compositions have a fascinating
vividness and are distinctively individual. He
has created and perfected his own style with
fanaticism and diligence that he became one
of the most acclaimed and popular Dutch
artists of our era. Julien Landa has a passion for
still-lives that are in great demand even beyond
the Dutch borders. He has innate ability to
compose serene images placed in complete
harmony with each other, together with his
distinctive use of blues and yellows. Herein lies
his true genius.
