The Golden Age of Dutch painting

Types of Painting
Frans Hals throne with the title later, Gypsy Girl. 1628-1630. Oil on canvas, 58 x 52 cm. The throne includes elements of portraiture, genre painting, and sometimes history painting.
A characteristic of the period, compared earlier painting Europe was the small amount of religious painting. Dutch Calvinism prohibits religious painting in churches, and even if biblical themes were acceptable in private homes, relatively few have been produced. Other traditional history classes were present in the painting of portraits, but the period is characterized by a variety of other genres, sub-divided into several specialized categories, such as scenes of peasant life, landscapes, cityscapes, landscapes, animals, marine paintings, paintings of flowers and natures died of various kinds. The development of several of these types of painting has been strongly influenced by 17th century Dutch artists.
The generalized theory of "hierarchy gender "in the paint, that certain types are considered more prestigious than others, brought many artists want to produce history paintings. However, this was the most difficult to sell, so Rembrandt found. Many had to produce portraits and genre scenes, which has sold more easily. In descending order status in the hierarchy of the categories are:
history painting, including religious themes
Portrait
genre painting, or scenes of everyday life
Landscape (Landscape were the men on foot "common in the military art," according to Samuel van Hoogstraten) and the urban landscape
still life
Paulus Potter, the young bull (1647): 3.4 meters wide. A monumental painting of animals exceptionally challenging the hierarchy gender.
Dutch highly concentrated in the lower "grades, but in any case, rejected the concept of the hierarchy. Most of the paintings have been relatively low, the only common type of paintings were really great group portraits. Painting directly on the walls when there was hardly any wall space in a building equipped with necessary public decoration framed canvas was normally used. For additional details as possible on a hard surface of many artists continued to use wood panels, some time after the rest of Western Europe had abandoned some copper plates used, usually recycling plates engraving. In turn, the number of surviving paintings from the Golden Age has been reduced by its being repainted with new works by artists from throughout the 18th century and 19 are generally poor less expensive than a new canvas, stetch and frame. There were very few sculptures for the Dutch period, are mainly found in the tombs and attached to public buildings sculptures, small houses are a significant deviation, the square taken by the silver and ceramics. Tiles painted tiles are very cheap and common, but rarely very High Quality, but the money, especially in the style headset, has led to Europe. With this exception, all artistic efforts have concentrated on painting and engraving.
Art World
Dirck Hals, gender, smoking and gentlemen Playing Backgammon in an Interior. Note the paintings on the wall of what appears to be a tavern here too.
Foreigners noted the enormous quantities of art and fairs where tables have been sold, is estimated that approximately more than 1.3 million Dutch pictures were painted in 20 years from 1640 only. Volume production means that prices were relatively low, with the exception of artists most famous, as in most subsequent periods, there was a gradient High Availability for more artists to fashion. Those who do not have a solid reputation contemporary or obsolete, which many considered among the greatest of the era, such as Vermeer, Frans Hals and Rembrandt in his later years, has had huge problems earning his life and died poor, and many artists have other jobs, art or abandoned altogether. In particular, the French invasion of 1672 (the Rampjaar, or " disaster year), caused a severe depression of the art market, which has never completely returned to the heights above. Film distribution is very broad: "yes Tymes ETTS Herreros many shoemakers.'ll have some pictures or other by their Forge and in their place. Such is the general idea, willing and happy that these Indians own country to paint, "an English traveler in 1640. There was almost the first time that many professional art dealers, many major artists, as Vermeer and his father, Jan van Goyen, Willem Kalf. Hendrick van Uylenburgh Distributor Rembrandt and his son Gerrit were among the most important.
The painter of Haarlem Guild in 1675, by Jan de Bray, whose portrait is the second from the left
The technical quality of Dutch artists generally very high, being widely depending on the system medieval learning with a teacher workshops were generally smaller than Flanders or Italy, with only one or two trainees, both the number is often limited by regulations Guild. The power of the local artists guild of St. Luke has been reduced but still important in many places, and new ones have been created in the period. Amsterdam Founded in 1579, and Gouda, Rotterdam, Utrecht and Delft were all created between 1609 and 1611, with the Leiden guild appears only in 1648. With the obvious exception of portraits, many Dutch paintings have become more "speculative" without a specific committee that what was then the case in other countries one of the many ways in the Dutch art market shows the future.
There were many dynasties of artists, many of them girls their masters or other artists. Many artists come from wealthy families who paid the fees of their learning, and often married at the property. Rembrandt and Jan Steen were enrolled at the University of Leiden for some time. Several cities had different specialties styles and themes, but Amsterdam was the largest arts center, due to its great wealth.
Aert de Gelder, Self Zeuxis (1685)
Dutch artists were significantly less interested in art theory that in many countries, and less likely to talk about their art, it seems that there was also much less interest in art theory in general, intellectual circles and among the general public what was then common in Italy. Like almost all commissions and sales have been citizens and among individuals whose accounts have not been met, are also less well documented than anywhere else. But the Dutch art has been a source of national pride, and biographers are an important source of critical information. It is Karel van Mander (Het Schilderboeck, 1604), covering essentially the last century, Arnold Houbraken (De Groote konstschilders der schouburgh Nederlantsche schilderessen in "The Great Theatre of Dutch painters," 171 821). Both monitoring and even passed, in Vasari, including a large number of short lives of more than 500 artists if Houbraken and both are generally considered to be accurate in fact. The German artist Joachim von Sandrart (1606 - 1688) worked during the periods in the Netherlands, and the Deutsche Akademie in the same format covers many Dutch artists he knew. Houbraken teacher and pupil of Rembrandt, was Samuel van Hoogstraten (16271678), which Zichtbare and tot wereld der Hooge Inleyding Schilderkonst School (1678) contain more critical than biographical information, and are among the most important treaties in the painting of the period. Like other works on art theory Netherlands that expose many common places of Renaissance theory and not fully reflect the contemporary Dutch art, but often focused on history painting.
Painting History
Jacob van Loo, Dana (compare the treatment of Rembrandt).
This category included not only paintings depicting historical events past tables, but also to show biblical scenes mythological, literary and allegorical. Recent historical events essentially removed from class, and have been treated realistically, as the right mix of portraits seascape or landscape issues. Large dramatic historical or biblical scenes occurred less frequently in other countries, since there was no market local religious art, baroque houses and some aristocrats fill. More than that, the Protestant population of large cities had been exposed very hypocritical for certain uses of allegory in the Mannerist Habsburg propaganda fails during the Dutch revolt, which had produced a strong reaction to realism and a distrust of the visual rhetoric of tail. history painting was an art "minority" but to an extent been corrected through this relatively strong interest in the printed version of the story topics
More than in other types of paint, the painters of the Dutch history has continued being influenced by Italian painting. Print and copy of the Italian masterpieces and distributed suggested certain compositional schemes. The ability to increase the representation Dutch of light is done on the styles of Italy, including that of Caravaggio. Some Dutch painters are also made in Italy, although less frequently than his contemporaries Flemish as seen among members of the club Bentvueghels Rome. Note that the most important artists in all areas Netherlands, figures as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Hals, Steen, Jacob van Ruisdael and others not make the trip.
Utrecht Caravaggio Dirck van Baburen, Christ crowned with thorns, 1623, to a convent in Utrecht, not a market in most of the Netherlands.
At the beginning of the century many artists Northern Mannerist styles formed in the last century has continued to work until 1630, in the case of Abraham Bloemaert and Joachim Wtewael. historical paintings have been many small scale, with the German painter (based in Rome) Adam Elsheimer as influential as Caravaggio (both died in 1610) in the Dutch painters such as Pieter Lastman, Rembrandt's teacher, Jan and Jacob Pynas. Compared to Baroque history paintings of other countries, shared emphasis realism in the Netherlands, and the history of the franchise, and are sometimes known as the "Pre-Rembrandtists as first paintings by Rembrandt have been in this style.
Utrecht Caravaggio describes a group of artists who produced the painting history in general and large genre scenes in an Italian-influenced style, often making extensive use of chiaroscuro. Utrecht, before the revolt of the largest city in the new territory of the Netherlands, Dutch is a big city, yet nearly 40% of Catholics in the middle of the century, among the most elite groups, including the nobility and the rural gentry, many of the houses there. The great artists have been com Brugghen Hendrick, Gerard van Honthorst and Dirck van Baburen, and the school has been active around 1630, although it is Honthorst continued until 1650 as court painter to the success of English, Dutch and Danish courts in a more classic style.
Rembrandt began as a history painter before finding financial success as a portraitist, and never relinguished its ambitions in this area. Many of his prints are in the narrative of religious scenes, and history of your Committee last story, The Conspiracy Claudius Civilis (1661) illustrates its commitment to the form and the difficulties he had to find an audience. Several artists, including many of his students, has attempted with some success to continue his very personal style, Govaert Flinck was the most successful. Gerard de Lairesse (16401711) is another of them, before falling under a strong influence of French classicism, and becoming its main sponsor Dutch, both as artist and theorist.
Nudity is really the prerogative of the history painter, although many of them dressed occasional nude portrait (mostly women) with a classic shape that Rembrandt did. Despite its suggestive uninhibited genre painters rarely found more generous cleavage or the thigh, usually where prostitutes or Italian painting "peasants.
Portraits

Frans Hals, Willem Heythuijsen (1634), 47 x 37 cm.
January Mijtens Portrait Family of 1652, with the boys in the "picturesque" clothing.
Portrait painting thrived in the 17th century Netherlands, as there was a large class of merchants they were much more willing to portraits of the Commission that their counterparts in other countries; A summary of the various estimates of the total at between 750,000 and 1.1 million profiles. Rembrandt has experienced its longest period of financial success as a young portrait painter from Amsterdam, but like other artists, have grown quite boring with painting portraits of bourgeois order, "The Artists travel along this path, without pleasure," according to Van Mander.
The men dressed in dark clothing and in many cases women sitters, and the Calvinist sense that the inclusion of accessories, products or views of the earth in the background show the sin of Pride leads to an identity denied in many portraits Netherlands, for their technical quality. Even a permanent installation is usually avoided, as a movie also could express pride. The poses are not very demonstrative, especially for women, although children may have more freedom. The classic moment of having a portrait painted in marriage, when the new husband and wife often occupied separate windows on a couple of tables. Rembrandt's late portraits of force by the force of characterization, and sometimes a narrative element, but even his portraits on time can be daunting mass, as in the room full of "Metropolitan Museum Rembrandt won boot of Art in New York.
Another great portrait of the era is Frans Hals, whose famous brushstroke and the ability to display vivid relaxed and cheerful sitters adds to the excitement, even most unpromising subjects, but the real "show" from the left is an exceptional example: "There is another portrait from this period is so informal. The model was a wealthy cloth merchant who had ordered Hals individual life business only full-length portrait full years before ten years. In this paper, much smaller than a private room, which has mounted clothes.Jan Bray encouraged his models to pose figures dressed in the classic story, but many of its works are of his own family. Thomas de Keyser, Bartholomeus van der Heist, Ferdinand Bol and others, including many who are following the story or the genre painters, did everything possible to encourage the classics. The portrait, fashion less affected by other types of paint, is a safe passage for Dutch artists.
As little we know about research methods artists, it seems that, as in other parts of Europe, drawn up probably was painted face and perhaps an initial session or two. The typical number of sessions Extra is not clear - from zero (for the full length of Rembrandt) and 50 seem documented. The clothes were in the workshop and could be painted by assistants, or master's degree in purchasing, though, or because they were considered a very important part of painting. Married and never-married women can be distinguished by their dress, with emphasis on how some married women were not painted, except for family groups. As elsewhere, the accuracy of the sample varies clothing - Striped patterns and used clothing, but the artists are seldom rightly avoid overwork. Lace and Ruff collars were inevitable, and presented a great challenge for realist painters. Rembrandt moved to a more efficient way of lace pattern painting, installation of large Stokes white and then paint the black light to show the model. Another way to do was to paint white on a layer of black, white and scratch at the end of the brush to show the structure.
At the end of the century there was a way show subjects in a semi-Dress Costume, which started in England by Van Dyck in the 1630s, known as "quaint" or "Roman" dress. Aristocratic, and the militias, leaving caregivers more freedom in dress light and wide as the parameters of bourgeois religious affiliations and probably affected many performances. In the late aristocratic, or French, the values are spreading among the citizens, and representations have been allowed greater freedom and the screen.
A special type of painting, combining elements of portraiture, history and genre painting was the throne. Usually, a half-length of a single figure which focuses on capture a mood or an unusual expression. The true identity of the model was not important, but that could a historical figure and being exotic or historical costume. Jan Lievens and Rembrandt, including many self-portraits also thrones (especially those that attack), were among those who developed the genre.
Pictures group, mostly Dutch invention have been popular among the general number of civic associations that have been an important part of Dutch life, as a guard of a civil city, the boards and Regents of the unions and charitable foundations, etc. Especially in the first half of the century, portraits were very formal and rigid composition. Groups sat around a table often, every person looking at the viewer. It has paid much attention to fine details in clothing, and furniture if needed, and other signs of a person's status in society. Later in the century groups became more intense and bright colors.
Scientists often posed with instruments and objects of his study around them. Doctors sometimes ask around a corpse, a lesson called "anatomical" the most famous is that of Rembrandt Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp (1632, Mauritshuis, The Hague). Boards prefer an image of austerity and humility, posing in dark clothes (which reflect refinement its prominent position in society), often around a table with solemn expressions on their faces. Often, families are represented luxury home.
Frans Hals portrait of a group of militia (1633), 3.3 meters wide.
Most group portraits of civil guards (Dutch: schutterstuk) were commissioned Haarlem and Amsterdam. Here is the portrait of a favorable image of the force, state or even a spirit of joy. Agreement around the table would result in years later, a more dynamic composition, the most prominent example is the famous Rembrandt Militia Captain Frans Banning Cocq better known as the company's round Evening (1642, Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam). In Amsterdam, most of these paintings in the final analysis, is in possession of the city council. Many of them now exhibited in the Amsterdam Historical Museum.
Often group portraits were paid by each person individually photographed. The amount paid to determine the location each person in the picture, either head to toe in full regalia on the front or the back of the group only. Sometimes, all members of the group paid a sum equal to what which can lead to quarrels when some members gained a more prominent place in the other image.
Scenes of everyday life
A typical image Jan Steen (c. 1663), while sleeping the housewife, the game of households.
genre paintings depict scenes that are important figures with no identity requirement is unite, not intended for portraits or historical figures. In landscape painting, development and the immense popularity of genre painting is the feature distinctive Dutch painting of this period, although in this case, are also very popular in Flemish painting. Many are simple figures, such as Vermeer's Milkmaid more above, others may have large social groups with one hand, or crowds. There were a number of subtypes within the genus: a single digit, family farmers, tavern scenes, "Merry Company" parties, women in Working around the house party scenes of village or town (although they were even more frequent in Flemish), market scenes, barracks scenes, scenes with horses or farm animals in the snow in the moonlight, and more. In fact, most of them had specific terms in Dutch, but there was no general Dutch equivalent term "genre painting" until the 18th century English often called "jokes." Some artists worked primarily in one of these subtypes, especially after 1625. During the century genre paintings tend shrinks.
Although the genre paintings provide many insights into the daily lives of the citizens of the 17th century of all kinds, accuracy can not always be assumed. Much that seemed to depict scenes of everyday life reality shows Dutch proverbs and sayings, or bearer of a message whose meaning moralist can now be deciphered by art historians, although some are quite clear. Many artists, buyers and no doubt, no doubt tried to do things both ways enjoy representation in the home or brothel scenes of disorder, while providing a moral interpretation of the works of Jan Steen, whose other job was an innkeeper, is an example. Balance between these elements is still debated by historians of contemporary art. The titles before painting is often a distinction between "taverns" or "cheap" and "brothel", but in practice it is very often the same institutions as it had many rooms above taverns behind or side to sex: "Inn at the brothel behind the face 'was a Dutch proverb. Steen is clarity over an exemplum, and even if the components individual realistically, it is represented, the scene is almost a convincing picture of a real time, usually the genre painting, is a situation that is represented, and satire.
Gerrit van Honthorst (1625), a visual pun on the lute in the brothel scene.
The Renaissance tradition of books emblem was dark in the hands of 17th century Dutch almost literate in the vernacular, but mostly uneducated in the classics and works transformed into hypocrisy populist Jacob Cats, Roemer Visscher and others, often based on popular sayings. Illustrations of these are often quoted directly in the tables, and since the beginning of historians of 20th century art has connected proverbs, sayings and the currency to a large number of genre paintings. Another popular source of meaning visual games with many terms Dutch slang in the sexual sphere: the vagina can be represented by a lute (lights) or half (Kus), and sex of a bird (Vogel), among many other options, and purely visual symbols such as shoes, pumps, and pitchers and bottles on their side.
The painters often painted the same work with a very different spirit of housewives or other women at rest at home or at work are more likely than men largely similar treatments, in fact, working-class men to continue with their jobs are the main away from the golden age of Dutch art, landscapes populated with passengers and onlookers, but rarely workers land. This group of subjects was a Dutch invention, which reflects the cultural concerns of the time, and must be approved by artists from other countries, especially France in the next two centuries.
Adriaen van Ostade, peasants in the interior (1661)
This tradition arose from the realistic and the background activity Details of early Flemish painting, that Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel the Elder were the first to deliver his great themes also making use of proverbs. Painters Willem Pieterszoon Buytewech Haarlem, Frans Hals and Esaias van de Velde were important early painters of the period. Buytewech painted "merry companies" well dressed the young people with a moral significance lies in the details. Van de Velde was also important as gardening, which included scenes inglorious figures very different from those of their genre paintings, usually set in the holiday cottage garden. Hals was primarily a portraitist, but the figures also painted a portrait of size of his career. A stay Haarlem by the Flemish master of the tavern Adriaen Brouwer peasant scenes, from 1625 or 1626 Adriaen van Ostade has on him all the time, but it has taken often a more sentimental. Before Brouwer, farmers have usually been represented abroad usually displays them in an interior light and dark, but sometimes van Ostade ostensibly decrepit farms occupy an enormous size.
Gabriel Metsu, gift hunters, c. 1660 a study of marital relations with a pun visual.
Van more likely to paint a single figure, as a group, and Caravaggio Utrecht Ostade gender works, and the figure of one or small groups of two or three most common, especially those of women and children. The most remarkable period female artist, Judith Leyster (16091660), specializes in them before her husband, Miense Jan Molenaar, convinced her to give the paint. Fijnschilder School Leiden (painters well ") were known for very small tables and finished, much of this type. Great artists including Gerard Dou Gabriel Metsu, Frans van Mieris the Elder, and later his son Willem van Mieris, Godfried Schalcken and Adriaen van der Werff.
This next generation, whose work now appears more refined than their predecessors, he also painted portraits and stories, and were the most award-winning Dutch painters at the end of the day, whose works have been sought in Europe. genre paintings reflects the increased prosperity of Dutch society, and the settings have steadily increased over comfortable, luxurious and well represented in this century. Artists are not part of the Leiden group together also included gender intimate groups Nicolaes Maes Gerard ter Borch and Pieter de Hooch, whose interest in the light in interior scenes were shared with Jan Vermeer, a long dark figure, but now the most popular genre painter of all.

Landscapes and cityscapes
Esaias van de Velde, Winter Landscape (1623)
The landscape is an important genre in the 17th century. Flemish landscapes (especially Antwerp) 16th century, first served as an example. These were not particularly realistic, especially having been painted in the studio, part of the imagination, and often still uses the view Semi-air on Dutch landscape painting tradition typical of Joachim first Patinir Bles Herri Met, and Pieter Bruegel the Elder. A more realistic style developed Dutch landscape, seen from ground level, often based drawings made in the open, with deeper horizons has highlighted the often cloud formations were impressive (and are) so typical in the climate region, and issue a special light. favorite topics were the dunes along the western sea coast, rivers with their broad meadows where cattle grazed nearby, often with a city skyline in the distance. winter landscape with the frozen canals and streams also abounded. The sea was a favorite subject, and depended Netherlands trade, he struggled with new lands, and fought over it with the nations of the competition.
important figures in early transition to realism was Esaias van de Velde (15871630) and Hendrick Avercamp (15851634), both also been mentioned as genre painters in the case of Avercamp same painting paintings deserve a mention in each category. Since the late 1620s the stage of "tone" of landscape painting began as artists or smoothing the edges blurred and focused the effect of the atmosphere, with the emphasis on the sky, and human figures generally small or absent and distant. Compositions based on a diagonal through image space has become popular, and the water is often recommended. The great artists were Jan van Goyen (15961656), Salomon van Ruysdael (16021670), Pieter de Molyneux (15951661), marine painting and Simon de Vlieger (16011653), with a series of minor characters of the recent study lists 75 artists who have worked van Goyen, at least for a year, including Cuyp.
Jacob van Ruisdael, the Moulin de Wijk (1670)
Jacob Albert Cuyp, Landscape with River Riders (c.1655); Cuyp specializes in golden evening light in the Dutch media.
Phase of the 1650 "classic" has begun, maintaining the quality of the atmosphere, but more expressive compositions and strong contrasts of light and color. The compositions are often anchored by a single tree hero, windmill or tower, or shed in maritime works. The artist was Jacob van Ruisdael (16281682), which produced a large number and variety of work, using all the typical Dutch subjects, except Italian landscape (below), however, producing "Nordic" landscapes of mountain pine forests dark and dramatic, with streams and waterfalls. Your student Meindert Hobbema was (16381709), better known for its unusual Middelharnis Avenue (1689, London), a departure from their usual scenes of water mills and roads through the forest. Two other artists with personal styles, the best work includes larger images (up to a meter or more in diameter) were Albert Jacob Cuyp (16,201,691) and Philips Koninck (16,191,688). Cuyp led light Italian gold and used in the night scenes with a group of characters in the foreground and behind them a wide river landscape. works Koninck are best panoramic views from a hill across vast flat farmland, with an immense sky.
Another type of landscape products through the review and classical phases, was the romantic Italian, usually in circles over the mountains that are in the Netherlands, a golden light, and sometimes staffage Mediterranean and picturesque ruins. Not all artists who specialized in them had visited Italy. Both Jan D. (1652), which had been in Rome and worked Claude Lorrain, is a leading developer of sub-genre that influenced the work of many landscape painters with the parameters of Dutch as Jacob Albert Cuyp. Others artists have always worked in the style Nicolaes Berchem (16201683) and Adam Pijnacker. Italian landscapes were popular as prints, paintings and more Berchem were reproduced in recorded during the same period than any other artist.
A significant number of artists who do not fit into one of these groups, particularly Rembrandt, whose relatively few landscape paintings show various influences, some of Hercules Seghers (c.1589 c.1638), its very strange landscape of high mountain valley has been developing very styles Personal of the 16th century. Aert van der Neer († 1677) very small rivers painted scenes of the night or under the ice and snow.
Landscape with animals in the foreground were a sub-type, and were painted by Cuyp, Paulus Potter (16251654), Adriaen van de Velde (16361672) and Karel Dujardin (16261678, farm animals), with Philips Wouwermans paint horses and riders in various environments. The cow was a symbol of prosperity for the Dutch so far ignored in the art, and off the horse, by far the most commonly found in animals, goats have been used to indicate Italy. Potter bull is a huge portrait and famous, as Napoleon has made in Paris (later returned), but analysts have pointed to the breeding of the representation of different parts of the anatomy that appears to be a study consisting of six animals of different ages very different.
Pieter Jansz Saenredam Assendelft Church, 1649, with the tomb of his father in the foreground.
Architecture also fascinated the Dutch churches in particular. At the beginning of the period of tradition was the main palaces of fantasy and city views Northern Mannerist architecture invented Flemish painting, which has continued growing, and the Netherlands was represented by Dirck van Delen. More realism has begun to appear and outside and inside the actual buildings have been reproduced, but not always accurately. In understanding the century to provide a proper perspective grew and were applied with enthusiasm. Several artists who specialize in the interior of the church. Pieter Jansz Saenredam, whose father Jan Saenredam Mannerist prints sensual goddesses naked, painted and whitewashed views deserted Gothic churches of the city. His insistence on the light and geometry, with a small representation of surface textures, is highlighted by comparing their work to that of Emmanuel de Witte, who has left the village, uneven floors, contrasts of light and space of the furniture, the church remaining in the reformed churches, all most often ignored by Saenredam. Gerard Houckgeest, followed by Witte and Hendrick van van Vliet, completes a traditional view of a main axis with the church for the added drama and interest on the diagonal. Gerrit specialized Berckheyde views the sparsely populated streets of the main square and the main public buildings, Jan van der Heyden favorite scenes from the most intimate Quiet street in Amsterdam, often with trees and canals. These views have been real, but were quick to adjust to a composition effect.
Jacob van Ruisdael, View of Haarlem Ruisdael is a central figure more varied than many gardeners.
Jan Both, the type of Italian landscape two began painting after his return from Rome.
Jan van Goyen, landscape of dunes, an example of "tone" style
The Grote Markt and Sint-Bavokerk, Haarlem, 1696, by Gerrit Berckheyde.
Marine Paint
Salomon van Ruysdael, a view Northwest typically seen Deventer (1657), an example of the phase of "tone."
The Dutch Republic was based on maritime trade for its exceptional wealth, was a naval war with Britain and other countries during the period, and was crossed by rivers and canals. Therefore not surprising that the type of paint the sea was very popular, and taken to new heights in the period of Dutch artists, such as landscapes, move the point of view typical high artificial marine paint was a crucial step. Pictures of sea battles told the story of the Dutch Navy at the height of his fame, but today is usually quieter scenes that are highly valued.
In most cases, even small vessels flying the Dutch tricolor, and many vessels can be identified as the sea, or any of the many ships of the government. Many photos including land, with a range or point of view of the port or a view of the estuary. Other artists with scenes of the river, the small picture of Salomon van Ruysdael with small containers and boxes of sugar cane in the major Italian landscape Jacob Albert Cuyp, where the sun is usually placed in a large river. The type of course shares much with the painting of landscape, and the development of the representation of the sky, the two go hand in hand, many artists also painted scenes beach and river landscape. Artists included Jan Porcellis, Simon de Vlieger, Abraham Storck. Willem van de Velde the Elder and his son are the masters of decades later, is ie early in the century, so that the ship is the subject, while the tonal works of the previous decades the emphasis has been placed on the sea and the weather. They went to London in 1672, leaving the captain of the German-born heavy seas Backhuysen Ludolf, as the artist foreground.
Still life
Pieter Claesz, Vanitas (1630)
The still lifes are an excellent opportunity to demonstrate his ability to paint textures and surfaces in great detail and realistic lighting effects. Food of any kind placed on a table covered with silver, intricate and subtle in the folds of the tablecloth and the flowers all painters question.
There are several types of objects have been recognized: banketje parties were "banquet" breakfast ontbijtjes lifes simple pieces. Practically all still had a moralistic message, so general in the brevity of life is what we call implicit vanitas theme, even in the absence of a clear symbol like a skull, or less obvious that one of half a lemon peeled (Such as life, fresh, but bitter to taste). The flowers and the food decays and money is no good for the soul. However, the strength of this message does not have much power in the more developed parts of the second half of the century.
Abraham van Beyer (1667); "ostentatious" Still Life with a mouse above the knife.
Initially, the objects presented were almost always trite, but as of mid-century pronkstilleven ("ostentatious dead") showing expensive items and exotic, became more popular. The realistic at the classic stages tonal landscape painting counterparts in painting was dead. Willem Heda Claeszoon (1595. 1680) and Willem Kalf (16191693) has allowed the modification of the pronkstilleven, while Pieter Claesz († 1660) simply preferred to paint "Ontbijt (breakfast piece) or explicit vanitas pieces. In all these artists, the colors are often very muted browns dominate, especially in the middle of century. This is less true of the works of Jan de Heem Davidszoon (16061684), a major figure who has spent much of his career in terms of the border to Antwerp. Here is the cartel began to spread laterally to form elongated scale images, unusual in the north, although sometimes more Heda painted vertical compositions. Painters life are especially likely to form dynasties it seems: there are many Heems Bosschaerts, Heda son continued in the style of his father, and Claesz was the father of Nicholas Berchem.
flower paintings form a sub-group with its own specialists, and sometimes have been the specialty of the few women artists, like Mary and Rachel van Oosterwyck Ruysch, Dutch is also a world leader in botanical and other scientific drawings, engravings and book illustrations. Despite the intense realism of individual flowers, paintings were composed of individual studies or even book illustration, and the proliferation of stations systematically different between the same composition and the same flowers reappear in different works, such as pieces of dishes to do. There were bouquets fundamental unreality of flowers in the vases were actually common at all in the houses at the time of screen-rich flowers, a tulip by a patchwork of owners.
Jacob Gillig, freshwater fish (1684)
The Dutch tradition was initiated largely by Ambrose Bosschaert (15731621), a flower painter of Flemish origin who had settled in the north at the beginning of the era, and founded a dynasty. His brother-brother Balthasar van der Ast († 1657) Pioneer of the still lifes of shells, flowers paintings, too. This first work was relatively well lit with bouquets of flowers arranged relatively simple. Plan by mid-century Baroque rightly called, usually on a black background, has become more popular, illustrated by the works of Willem van Aelst (16,271,683).
Painters of Leiden, The Hague, Amsterdam and particularly excelled in the genre. dead animals and birds painted on alive, but has studied the dead, were another sub-genre, like dead fish, a staple diet Dutch Abraham van Beijeren many of them. The Dutch were less likely flamenco style of combining elements of lifes great even with other types of paint, they were considered arrogant in custom and portrait specialist in Flemish painters working in the different elements in the same work. But what has happened on occasion Wouwermans Philips has sometimes been used to add horses and transform men a landscape in a game or a battle scene, Berchem Adriaen van de Velde to add people or livestock.
Willem van Aelst, Nature Life with a clock (c.1665), with a black background typical.
Willem Heda Claeszoon, breakfast table with Blackberry Pie (1631), Heda was famous for his portrayal reflective surfaces.
Davidszoon Jan de Heem, Vanitas (1629)
Weenix January, Still Life with a peacock died (1692), in the gardens of a large house.
Foreign Lands
Frans Post, the scene in Dutch Brazil, painted in 1662, several years after the colony was lost.
Many Dutch (and Flemish) painters working abroad or exported from their work, recorded is also an important export market, in which Rembrandt became famous throughout Europe. Dutch donation of Charles II of England was a diplomatic gift included four contemporary Dutch paintings. English painting depends largely on Dutch painters, with Sir Peter Lely, Sir Godfrey Kneller followed by the development of portraiture English-style prepared by Anthony van Dyck Flemish, before the English Civil War. Marina van der Velde painters, father and son were among the many artists who have emigrated from Holland the French invasion of 1672, which has a market decline of art. Also moved London, and the beginnings of English landscape painting has been found by several less distinguished Dutch painters like Hendrick Danckerts. The Bamboccianti a former Dutch colony of artists who introduced the genre in Italy. January Weenix Hondecoeter Melchior and specialized in the game and birds, living or dead, and in demand of a country house and shooting over the country house in northern Europe. Frans Post a landscaper, and Albert Eckhout, a still life painter, who also shook hands with Native figures were sent to the short life of Dutch Brazil, the largest Dutch East Indies were much less complete artistically.
After reputation
Philips Wouwermans, Travelers waiting for a Ferry (1649), a landscape with the completion Brand Wouverman a white horse.
The enormous success of the 17th century Dutch painting to dominate the work of later generations, and no Dutch painter centuryor 18 without doubt one of the well-known in the 19th century outside the Netherlands. By the end of the artists complained that the buyers were more interested in the death of artists alive.
If only because of the enormous quantities produced, Dutch Golden Age Painting has always been an important part of the collections of paintings by the masters age, itself a term coined to describe the 18th century Dutch Golden Age artists. Wouwermans Bearing that in the old royal collections, Over 60 in Dresden and more than 50 in the Hermitage. But the reputation of the period has shown many changes and policy changes. One factor has been the admiration more or less Rembrandt constant, especially since the romantic era. Other artists have shown drastic changes critical success and the market price at end of period a few of Leiden force fijnschilders had great popularity, but from the realistic works of mid-19th century in various genres have been much appreciated. Vermeer was rescued of almost total darkness to the 19th century, in which several of his works have now been redeployed to other people. However, the fact that so many of his works were already in large collections, often attributed to other artists, shows that the quality of individual arrangements is recognized even if the collective work was unknown. Other artists have continued to be saved from the mass of small-renowned artists: the late and very simple still life by Adriaen cohort in the 1950s, and landscape Mancaden Jacobus Frans Post and early century.
Gerard ter Borch, paternal admonition, or the brothel scene (c. 1654 version of Amsterdam).
genre paintings have been popular, but little consideration. Sir Joshua Reynolds, English leader of the 18th century academic art, has made several revealing comments on Dutch art. He was impressed by quality Vermeer milk (shown earlier in this article) and the portraits of Hals, regretting that he had no patience "To finish properly, and regretted Steen who was not born in Italy and trained by the High Renaissance, and his talent could have better use. In times of Reynold moral aspect of genre painting and is not understood, even in the Netherlands, the famous example is the so-called parental warning, as it was then, by Gerard ter Borch. This has been hailed by Goethe and others on the sensitivity of expression of a father reprimanding his daughter. In fact, most (but not all scientists) modern, there is a proposal scene in a brothel, there are two versions (Berlin and Amsterdam) and is difficult to know if a coin "witness" in the hand of man has been removed or painted in any case.
In the second half of 18th century realism to the land of Dutch painting was an advance Whigs in England and France related to the rationalism of the Enlightenment and the aspirations of political reform. In the 19th century, with almost universal respect for more realism, and the final decline of the hierarchy of genres, artists began to borrow from contemporary painters gender, both for its realism and its use of objects of narrative purposes, and painting similar subjects themselves, with all pioneering Dutch are much fabric larger (with the exception of still lifes).
In landscape painting, Italian artists were the most influential and respected in the 18th century, John Constable, but were among the Romantics, who denounced artificial, preferring tones and classic artists. In fact, the two groups remained influential and popular the 19th century.
