Jacob Dooijewaard (1876-1969)

Zomerochtend

Oil on canvas

80 x 85 cm / 31.5 x 33.5 inch

Signed lower left J.Dooijewaard 1930

Provenance: Francois Buffa, Amsterdam; Private collection, Houston, USA

Jacob Dooijewaard travelled to Norway almost every summer, where he would stay at the house of his good friend and painter William Singer. The surroundings, the nature and the bright light were of important inspiration to Dooijewaard. His palette had become lighter under the influence of the climate and the different light, the heavy warm colours of the Low Countries giving way to soft, cool and serene hues. Dooijewaard would look for new mediums to portray his Norwegian experiences and pointillist techniques offered him natural possibilities in this new environment.

In this painting, which Dooijewaard painted in 1930, he depicted a nanny sitting on a bench with a baby carriage in front of her. She is completely focused on the activity of sewing or embroidering the white cloth she holds in her hands. The surrounding nature breathes a realm of serenity. The clear blue sky, the beautiful green cliffs of the fjord, the sleeping baby and the concentrated nanny: everything points to a peaceful environment. Dooijewaard evidently succeeded in representing the pleasant feelings he had about Norway in ‘Nanny at the Fjord’

The woman appears to be Anna Singer in her garden near Olden, Norway

Dit schilderij van Stamkart is een exceptioneel en zeldzaam werk

In de catalogus Kunstenaren der idee; symbolistische tendenzen in Nederland ca. 1880-1930 (Haags Gemeentemuseum 1978) wordt Stamkart uitvoerig opgevoerd tussen tijdgenoten als Toorop, de Neree tot Babberich of Johan Thorn Prikker

Cornelis Vreedenburgh (1880-1946)

Gezicht op het Rokin, Amsterdam, gezien vanaf de Amstel in noordelijke richting, met de
Doelensluis in de voorgrond en de De Nederlandse Bank aan de Oude Turfmarkt (nu Allard
Pierson Museum) rechts, op een grijze bewolkte ochtend

Gesigneerd rechtsonder C. Vreedenburgh. 1926

Olie op doek

58.5 x 38.5 cm, in de originele vergulde lijst

Herkomst: Van de kunstenaar vererfd binnen de familie aan mevrouw Römer-Rebel, Den Haag; daarna door vererving aan de huidige eigenaar

Dit schilderij valt op door de suggestieve en transparante stijl van schilderen, in een terughoudend maar uitgewogen palet. Daarbij laat Vreedenburgh nadrukkelijk delen van het doek onbeschilderd en gebruikt de grondtoon daarvan in het spel van grijze en roze tinten. Vooral in de voorgrond met de Doelensluis en in de reflecties in het water laat het schilderij de invloed zien van James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834 - 1903). Rechts is het pand de Oude Turfmarkt 127 te zien waar tot 1968 De Nederlandse Bank gevestigd was en vanaf 1976 het Allard Pierson Museum

Cornelis Vreedenburgh behoort tot een van de geliefdste en succesvolste schilders van zijn tijd. In 1905 ontving hij de Willink van Collenprijs; in 1937 kocht koningin Wilhelmina twee van zijn schilderijen, waarvan een van de Prins Hendrikkade, Amsterdam
