Adolfs spent his youth in Java and received his first artistic inspirations at home. His father, Gerardus Cornelis Adolfs, was an architect and a versatile amateur (painter, photographer, piano and violin player and pole vaulter). Adolfs studied architecture in Amsterdam. After graduating, he was drawn back to Java, where he designed houses in Yogyakarta, Surakarta and Surabaya. But he soon exchanged the drawing pen for the dry needle, pencil and brush and from that moment on he devoted his entire life to painting.
