Life

[edit]

Thierry Rijkhart de Voogd was born in Grand-Couronne near Rouen, France, on 15 August 1944. He was the son of a Dutch couple who had emigrated to France. He studied at a young age at the École Régionale des Beaux-Arts de Rouen in the years 1959–1962. He then worked as an artist in France and married the later sculptor Maïté Duval in 1967. The couple moved to the Netherlands where Rijkhart de Voogd had his atelier in Voorst (1968–1987) and Zutphen (1987-1999).[2] The artistic archives of both Duval and Rijkhart de Voogd were donated to the regional archive in Zutphen.[5] Rijkhart de Voogd's work can be found in public buildings in the Netherlands and France, and in private and museum collections. He died in Zutphen, the Netherlands, on 28 May 1999.
