Vaarzon Morel (1868 - 1955) was active/lived in Netherlands. He is known for Horses, sporting paintings. The Dutch artist Willem Ferdinand Isaac Vaarzon Morel was born in Zutphen. He was admitted to the Kunstnijverheidsschool in Haarlem, and later to the Academy of Fine Arts in Amsterdam. He also studied in France and traveled in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy and Great Britain. For several years he was the protégé of Queen Wilhelmina. In 1891 Vaarzon Morel won the second prize of the Willink van Collenfonds. Among his works with oil paint and watercolor there are often cityscapes and beach scenes in which he perfectly depicted worldly life. With August Allebé (1838–1927) as his teacher and George Hendrik Breitner (1857–1923) as his model, he clearly emerges from the Amsterdam School style. Vaarzon Morel later developed as a true colorist with an elegant hand, working in a French post-impressionist style. He has exhibited his work both nationally and internationally and is represented in numerous national and international corporate collections, institutions, museums and private collections. Overall, he is a very desirable and admirable artist.
