biography of Johannes Boele

n addition to being a successful entrepreneur and director of the Kampen cigar factory La Bolsa, Johannes Boele was also an avid amateur painter. From the age of ten he had been taught by the well-known Kamper painter Johannes Daniël Belmer. Boele mainly painted landscapes in the (wide) surroundings of Kampen and IJssel views; from his house at 29 IJsselkade he looked out on the river. He was also a board member for many years and from 1928 chairman of the association 'Kunstzin'. Their aim was to organize exhibitions of visual art and they also undertook initiatives to propagate the love for art.
