Kluyver, whose daughter Catharina Helena he married in 1881. Middelbeek specialised in painting snowy woodland scenes and occasionally collaborated with fellow Amsterdammer Willem Hendrick Eickelberg. In addition to his activities as a painter, Middelbeek also ran a shop dealing in painting supplies.
