Adriana "Adri" Jacoba Pieck (1894–1982) was a Dutch artist.[1]

Biography[edit]

Pieck was born on 29 April 1894 in the Scheveningen section of The Hague. Her sister Margaretha "Gretha" Pieck (1898-1920) was a painter, as was her cousin Anton Franciscus Pieck (1895-1987). She attended the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam. Her teachers included her father, Antonie Pieck [nl] (1865-1925)[2] Carel Lodewijk Dake [nl], Willem Knip [nl].[3]

Gretha and Adri exhibited together and shared a studio until Gretha's early death from Spanish influenza in 1920.[4]

Her work was included in the 1939 exhibition and sale Onze Kunst van Heden (Our Art of Today) at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.[5] Pieck was a member of the Gooische Painters Association and the Kunstenaarsvereniging Sint Lucas [nl], exhibiting regularly with the Sint Lucas group from 1915 through 1961.[5][3]

Pieck died in Hollandsche Rading on 5 April 1982.[6]
