Our mission is to preserve Europe’s artistic heritage and make these unique paintings accessible to collectors today.
Two friends, one overflowing house and a growing pile of paintings. This is how Holland Art Shop came to be.
Tycho and I were collecting artworks for ourselves because of our shared interest in art — he studied at art school and I’m a musician. We decided my home would become the storage space. Within no time the entire house was stacked with paintings and there wasn’t a single room left with proper walking space.
We actually started Holland Art Shop by accident. One day my girlfriend Roos came with the idea to sell some of the artworks, and the response was overwhelming. Real, handmade vintage art from Holland and Europe that the three of us made accessible — it was a hit. So we kept expanding and eventually founded Holland Art Shop.
We’re three enthusiastic youngsters in our mid-twenties. We all have our part in searching for artworks, handling them with care and maintaining our online platforms. Even Harry, my cat, plays his part by occasionally knocking over a frame when we leave it unattended in the living room for longer than a minute.
In Holland and Europe we have such a rich history of quality art. It’s a pleasure to be able to make those works accessible to you.
From the moment we find a painting to the day it arrives at your door, these four things happen every time.
We travel across Holland and Europe to find every piece ourselves, week after week.
Tycho inspects every painting for authenticity, age and condition, and repairs canvas where needed.
Every painting is packed by hand, with the frame and canvas protected for the journey.
Tracked shipping to 30+ countries, with frequent deliveries to the United States.
