Willem Hendrik Köhler was studying law in Leiden when he decided to become a painter. He then attended classes at the academy in The Hague for four years. His work is indebted to the Hague School in both style and subject matter: he painted flat, Dutch landscapes that, in their emphasis on the occurrence of a moment, a certain light, are reminiscent of the landscapes of Charles Roelofs and P.J.C. Gabriel. The painter lived and worked in Maarssen for a large part of his life.
