Erasmus Bernhard von Dülmen Krumpelmann
Bad Kreuznach (Duitsland) 1897-1987 Zeegse
Van Dulmen Krumpelman was a Dutch painter, who moved to Amsterdam shortly after his birth. During his secondary school period he often made drawings and watercolours around the Zeedijk and Jordaan and after three years of Gymnasium he switched to a private drawing school. Through his teacher he came into contact with other artists such as August Allebé, George Breitner and Willem Witsen, who helped him develop his style. He painted mainly in an impressionistic style.
In 1921 he settled in Drenthe. There he came into contact with painters from the Groningen art circle De Ploeg, after which his painting style became looser and more colourful. Erasmus Bernhard van Dulmen Krumpelman painted numerous village and cityscapes, first of course in Amsterdam but from 1917 he regularly worked in Drenthe. He settled permanently in Zeegse in 1921, after his marriage to the daughter of a farmer there. In addition to the cityscapes with their own dynamics, he also paints many Drenthe landscapes, circus scenes and portraits. In addition to the Netherlands, van Dulmen Krumpelmann has also worked abroad. From the mid-1920s, he regularly went to Paris, where he painted a large number of canvases with views of the wide boulevards.
van Dulmen Krumpelman co-founded De Drentse Schilders in 1946, an artists' association that existed until the mid-fifties. He was then co-founder of the Drents Schildersgenootschap (1954) together with his son Erasmus Herman and Evert Musch, among others. He won the Cultural Prize of Drenthe in 1958.
Works by Erasmus Bernard von Dülmen Krumpelmann hang in various museums, including the Drents Museum and Museum Thijnhof. His works can also be found in the collections of the Amsterdam Municipal Archives, the Rijksprentenkabinet and the Zuiderzeemuseum. He can also be found with private admirers and also abroad.
