According to the RKD she was the daughter of Casparis Haanen, and the sister of Adriana Johanna Haanen, George Gilles Haanen and Remigius Adrianus Haanen.[1] She married the artist Petrus Kiers and became the aunt of Cecil van Haanen.[1] She was the mother of George Lourens Kiers and Catharina Isabella Kiers, both of whom also became artists.[1]
From 1838 she was an honorary member of the Royal academy of art in Amsterdam (Koninklijke Academie voor Beeldende Kunsten).[1] She is known for her genre paintings, but was also a papercut artist who cut more than a hundred portraits of artists around 1837.[1]
