Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek was a nineteenth-century Dutch painter and draughtsman associated with landscape and marine subjects. He is often identified as Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek (I) or “the Elder” because another member of the extended Koekkoek family carried the same name. Authority-linked records also place him within a multigenerational Dutch family of artists and identify him as a brother of Barend Cornelis Koekkoek. Dutch library-linked data aggregated by VIAF and the Dutch biography give his lifespan as 1807–1868, although Art UK and Getty-linked records use 1870 as the death year. Collectors are most likely to encounter his name in connection with paintings and drawings of landscapes or maritime subjects. Because several Koekkoek artists worked across generations, precise given names, initials, life dates, and catalogue attributions matter when matching an object or auction result to this artist.

Common works and media
Published artist records characterize Koekkoek as a landscape and marine painter, while Dutch biographical material also identifies him as a draughtsman. The source-supported object groups are therefore landscape paintings, maritime paintings, and drawings. A pencil self-portrait credited to the Rijksmuseum documents his use of drawing, but that individual work does not establish portraiture as a common auction category.
Market and appraisal context
Market research should begin by separating Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek (I) from the later namesake and other members of the Koekkoek family. Comparable records are most useful when the artist attribution, work type, and subject align: a marine painting should not be treated as directly equivalent to a landscape or drawing. Appraisily's artist page is structured around auction-price records, but the collected source pack does not expose enough lot-level evidence to support a price trend or estimate. For appraisal, review the underlying sale date, realized price, and similarity of comparable lots when those records are available, while preserving uncertainty in attribution or cataloguing.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Landscape paintings and marine paintings
- Drawings
Value drivers
- Correct attribution to Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek (I), rather than the later namesake or another member of the Koekkoek family
- Alignment of work type and subject when selecting comparables, particularly landscape painting, marine painting, or drawing
- Comparable public auction records, sale dates, and realized prices when underlying records are available
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack does not expose lot-level descriptions or results sufficient to establish a price trend or predict value.
- The artist can be confused with a later relative of the same name and with other painters in the Koekkoek family.
- Published identity sources conflict between 1868 and 1870 as the artist's death year.
