Johannes Fredericus (Freek) van den Berg was a Dutch painter born in Amsterdam on May 29, 1918. Mostly self-taught, he took lessons from Frits Giltay and received advice from Han van Dam. Known as 'the Kees van Dongen of Kattenburg,' he was also an art critic from 1954 to 1963. He moved to Veessen in 1985, where the landscape influenced his lighter, brighter palette. Often described as the last Dutch fauvist, his work shows connections to French Impressionism and German Expressionism. He had three children, including painter Roland van den Berg.
