Dutch painter Jan Kleintjes spent part of his youth in Berlin, but attended a boarding school in Baarn in the Netherlands. He studied from 1891-94 at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Amsterdam. Kleintjes married painter Hedwig Cecile Albertine van Osselen. He concentrated on painting figure scenes and cityscapes, but also painted portraits. He and his wife often exhibited together, and after her death Kleintjes painted still lifes of flowers in tribute to her. The professor and lawyer Philip Kleintjes (1867-1938) was his half-brother.
