Matthijs Nicolaas Röling (31 March 1943, Oostkapelle), Dutch painter, graphic designer, muralist, printmaker, and teacher. Educated at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague from 1960 to 1963, and at the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam in 1963-1964, his first museum exhibition took place in 1965 in the Drents Museum in Assen. In 1972 he became a lecturer at the Academie Minerva in Groningen. He also lectured at the Classical Academy for fine art in Groningen. His artistic breakthrough came in 1976 with a series of still lifes, which he called cabinets. In 1983 he made his first big mural in the Nijsinghhuis in Eelde. He has been described as a "figurehead of contemporary figurative painting in the Netherlands."
