Discover how painters such as Van Gogh, Mondrian, and Jacoba van
Heemskerck drew on the legacy of Dutch landscapes and realism to
put their own spin on the Impressionist movement. Impressionism may
have originated in France, but artists in late 19th- and early
20th-century Netherlands quickly made it their own. The genre’s
vibrant colors and focus on light and atmosphere were a perfect
complement to the country’s groundbreaking traditions of
landscape painting and realism. This exhibition catalog brings more
than a hundred works by nearly forty artists including Johan
Barthold Jongkind, Vincent van Gogh, Jacoba van Heemskerck, and
Piet Mondrian. It traces the birth of the Hague School, whose
practitioners captured the changing moods of light in the
coastline’s vast, grey skies. And it explores the Amsterdam
Impressionists, whose cityscapes offered realistic images of modern
life. Alongside vibrant reproductions of masterworks, a series of
lively essays explore a diverse array of topics, including Dutch
landscape painting within an international context; Dutch artist
settlements and communities; and iconography in Dutch
impressionism.
