Life and work
Charles Eyck was born in 1897 in Meerssen.[2] He received his training at the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam. He had previously started as a pottery painter[2] at the ceramics factory Céramique in Maastricht.[3] In 1922, he won the Prix de Rome. After short stays in Sweden, Curaçao, southern France, Amsterdam, Clamart and Utrecht, he settled in Schimmert.
Initially, his work was expressionistic in style. He was later criticized for persisting in a more or less consistent religious style. Partly because of these criticisms and his increasing deafness, he lived more and more in seclusion in the house "Ravensbos" in Schimmert, which he designed himself.
After the unveiling of the Bevrijdingsraam in the Sint Janskerk in Gouda (1947), Eyck was presented with the decoration of a Knight in the Order of Orange-Nassau. He returned the award almost twenty years later, because he could not agree with a marriage between Princess Beatrix and the German Claus.[4]
Charles Eyck died at the age of 86.[5]
