Johan-Barthold Jongkind Biography

(b latrop, 3 june 1819; d la-côte-saint-andré, 9 feb 1891). Dutch painter and printmaker. After training and working briefly as a notary’s clerk, he studied from 1836 at the Academie Voor Beeldende Kunsten in the Hague, where he befriended Charles Rochussen and was especially influenced in his watercolour technique by the work of the director, Andreas Schelfhout. Among his early wash drawings, Embarkation (1844; the hague, gemeentemus.) provides evidence of a developed sense of this medium. In 1854, in response to a request from Comte Emilien de Nieuwerkerke, Schelfhout proposed Jongkind as a young Dutch artist who might profit from going to Paris to study in the studio of Eugène Isabey; Jongkind therefore accompanied Nieuwerkerke to Paris and was based there for the next ten years. His work during this period embraced oil painting of a sometimes markedly traditional Dutch character, as in Winter Scene (1846; the hague, gemeentemus.), and detailed and sharply observant watercolours of streets and squares in Paris, such as the View of the Barrière Monceau (c. 1851; the hague, gemeentemus.). Jongkind also made sketching trips away from Paris, especially during the early 1850s, returning to Dutch settings to paint, and also sketching frequently on the coasts of Brittany and Normandy, where the strong Atlantic light prompted some of his best watercolour work up to that point (e.g. etretat , c. 1851; paris, louvre).
