Jean Augustin Daiwaille
Jean Augustin Daiwaille was a Dutch portrait painter and lithographer. He studied under Adriaan de Lelie. He was director of the Rijksakademie from 1820 to 1826. After that time, he resided at Rotterdam, where he was very successful in painting portraits. He was an early exponent of lithography during the 1820s, overseeing the installation of a lithographic press at the new Koninklijke Academie, and instructing the students on the use of the technique. He established his own lithographic business in 1826, producing reproductions of his own paintings, and collaborating with other artists such as Barend Cornelis Koekkoek to make copies of their work.
