Cees van de Weert is mostly known for his work at the legendary Marten Toonder Studios. While at first he did many types of drawing jobs for the studio, he later focused on creating backgrounds for the cartoons, and eventually became chief of the drawing studio of the Toonder Studios' comic production. For the Dutch magazine Tom Poes Weekblad he created the series 'Marco Polo', which ran from 1948 to 1949. This comic was continued halfway by Gerard van Straaten. Eventually, Cees van de Weert ended his career as a graphic designer in the toy production field.
