About Robbert
I am a trained art historian (MA 1988) and artist (MFA 1982) ; worked as Educator in museums, art historical research centers and publishers (e.g. Macmillan London: The Dictionary of Art). I am currently researching the meaning of hidden symbols in artworks of the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance and their relationships with writings of the same era. Meanings of signs that can be abstract or figurative are the building blocks of art that has significance. I extend my interest to the art of impressionists and post-impressionists as Cézanne, Van Gogh and Bonnard. How to speak and understand a language that unites our inner and outer worlds and enhances harmony, peace and silence in our modern world, is what I try to find when looking at art as well as practicing it. This approach has led to new collaboration, also with counselors to support their work with people who search for a healthier lifestyle.

My daughter sought support through tutorials from Rob for GCSE Art History. It was one of the best decisions we have taken! Not only have my daughter’s grades improved and her confidence boosted, it has genuinely kindled an interest art history in her. Thank you Rob.
We highly recommend him.Before our trip to Florence, we decided to take art history lessons to enhance our visit to the Uffizi Gallery, and Robbert’s classes turned out to be the perfect choice. Over six sessions, he far exceeded our expectations with his engaging, enthusiastic teaching style.
Robbert has an incredible depth of knowledge about the Renaissance period and a remarkable ability to bring each painting to life. His explanations of the intricate symbolism in works by artists like Botticelli and Raphael—often tied to Greek and Roman culture—gave us a completely new perspective.
Thanks to Robbert, we approached the Uffizi with a much deeper understanding, and our visit was far more meaningful and enjoyable as a result. If you’re planning a trip or simply want to deepen your appreciation of art, I can’t recommend his classes highly enough.Robbert is a very good teacher. He gently guides you, allowing you to see your potential by the end of the first lesson.
Working with grid helped me, as a complete beginner and now I can implement my ideas with this useful tool. Robbert instilled a love for old masters, like Michelangelo and Leonardo in me and I'm very grateful to him for unveiling the simple means of copying old masters, which is patience doing hatching and not being afraid, because drawing is about joy in every line.My teenage daughter has been taking virtual classes with Robbert for the past years.
Robbert is engaging and interactive making each session enjoyable and productive. He is dedicated and passionate with the teaching. Despite the virtual format, the classes feel personal and connected. I feel fortunate to have Robbert as my daughter’s art teacher.
My son and I have been learning art courses (painting and pottery) with Robert for almost two years. He is knowledgeable and patient tutor. we truly enjoy his classes.
I am taking drawing lessons from Robbert, he is very talented artist who is always patient and encouraging .Also he has good energy and authentic person. I definitely recommend him to anyone wants to take art lessons.
I want to thank Robbert for his professionalism and inspiring approach to teaching. His lessons have not only helped me improve my skills but also made me fall in love with the creative process. Robert has a unique ability to connect with everyone, offering support and motivation. Thank you for your patience and for being such an inspiration!
Robbert is a great tutor when it comes to Art history, his enthusiasm and ability to get across relevant ideas of the artist or period is a joy to listen to.
I have had several theoretical lessons connected with Art history and have always found them informative and interesting.
Going on field trips to the main Art galleries in London is another excellent and enjoyable experience as Robbert always brings his wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to make the visits a highly enjoyable experience.
Sometime ago I worked, I worked on a number of papers, with the tutorage of Robbert, I can quite frankly tell you not only was he a pleasure to work with, and had any number of interesting twist and terms to help along with the paper, but also his understanding of our history was an incredible help, I would have no hesitation in recommending Robert for any project he felt he was capable of. I can remember one evening late at night. I came down to the last sentences of this paper before he sent it in. I needed some thoughts and reviews the truth is it was 10 at night I’d sent Him a review see what he thought. The idea was he would read it the following morning, by 11 o’clock. He returned with some wonderful ideas that help me push through to the end. What a pleasure to work with this gentleman.
