Marius Alexander Jacques Bauer was a Dutch painter, etcher and lithographer, best known for his Oriental scenes. His style was largely Impressionistic. Many of his works were based on photographs he bought during his travels. He was born in The Hague, Netherlands. His father was a stage painter who encouraged his son's early interest in drawing. From 1878 to 1885, he studied at the Royal Academy of Art, but left without graduating. While there, his works were awarded several medals and he received a stipend from King William III, which enabled him to study independently.
