Rien Poortvliet Museum, Art museum in Korendijk, Netherlands

The museum displays an extensive collection of original drawings, paintings, and illustrations created by Dutch artist Rien Poortvliet throughout his career spanning four decades.

Originally established in Middelharnis Town Hall in 1992, the museum relocated to Tiengemeten Island in 2009, occupying the nineteenth-century Marguerita farmhouse near the harbor.

The exhibition includes detailed nature illustrations, wildlife sketches, and the famous gnome series that gained recognition across multiple countries through published books.

From Tuesday to Sunday, visitors can explore the museum between 11:30 AM and 4:30 PM, with special activities for children in the gnome attic and outdoor path.

The museum features a personal film where Rien Poortvliet discusses his work and shows his creative process in his Soest residence.
