<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 9430607, member: 2844&quot;]I just read some more about Hindelooper painting.</p><p>Apparently the tradition had all but died out in the 19th century. But in 1894 a young man named Arend Roosje revived it after studying old pieces. His work sold, and soon other young people came knocking on his door asking to be his apprentice.</p><p>The Roosje workshop still exists, but it is owned by a different family now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I love the name Arend Roosje. Arend is a common men&#039;s name in the north of the country, it means eagle. A Frisian version is Arendo, but Arend is also used in Friesland. Roosje means little rose.</p><p>So his name was Eagle Little Rose.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
