Kuijten's success from 1915 onward was largely due to his nudes. Critics described them as modern in character, natural, without piquancy, and with bright, cheerful colors. According to Jan Juffermans, he possessed 'a sense of humor, a good dose of self-confidence, sound business acumen, an uncomplicated painting style, a playful choice of subjects, and a vibrant palette.' The painter refused to be categorized as belonging to any 'ism' or movement. From the collection of Kuijten collector Rob van Vuure.
