Latair AuctionsMauritz Frederik Hendrick De Haas (1832 - 1895)Holland Watercolor on Paper Measure 9 1/2"in H x 13"in W and 17"in H x 21"in W wih frame Biography: One of the most famous 19th-century marine and landscape painters, especially of Long Island, Mauritz De Haas was born in Rotterdam, Holland where he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts. He also studied at The Hague, a pupil of Louis Meyer, and then specialized in watercolor in London. De Haas felt a special affinity for Long Island because it resembled his native Holland in its terrain and ever-changing effects of light and atmosphere. He was determined to capture the full range of these effects, from bright sunshine reflected on the rippling waves of Long Island Sound to the cool moonlight shining on the beach at Southampton. According to one contemporary critic, he succeeded: "His pencil is equal facile whether portraying a storm on the coast, moonlight effects at sea, or brilliancy of the sunset hour." In painting moonlight scenes, the same source claimed, de Haas had "few equals."

BIOGRAPHY: One of the most famous 19th-century marine and landscape painters, especially of Long Island, Mauritz De Haas was born in Rotterdam, Holland where he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts. He also studied at The Hague, a pupil of Louis Meyer, and then specialized in watercolor in London.In 1859, at the age of twenty seven he immigrated to the United States and set up a studio in New York. In his adopted homeland, he first became known for his European views and then for his scenes painted along the Northeast Coast. Among the latter were views of Long Island: Orient, Montauk, Peconic, Westhampton, Bridgehampton, and Southampton, as well as points along the Long Island Sound.He painted Civil War naval scenes for Admiral Farragut. A brother, William Frederick De Haas, was also a distinguished artist. De Haas felt a special affinity for Long Island because it resembled his native Holland in its terrain and ever-changing effects of light and atmosphere. He was determined to capture the full range of these effects, from bright sunshine reflected on the rippling waves of Long Island Sound to the cool moonlight shining on the beach at Southampton. According to one contemporary critic, he succeeded: "His pencil is equal facile whether portraying a storm on the coast, moonlight effects at sea, or brilliancy of the sunset hour.

Eldred'sMauritz Frederick Hendrik de Haas, Dutch / American 1832-1895- Sailing boats in calm waters; pencil on paper, signed 'MFH de Haas' (lower right), 12.5 x 18 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: De Haas was Dutch born, but moved to America in 1859 under the patronage of the German-American financier August Belmont. He was principally known as a marine artist, almost exclusively depicting the subject of boats at sea, and was clearly fascinated by the expanse of water and the grandeur of the vessels which navigate it. In contrast to many of his more dramatic scenes, the present work is notably serene and peaceful, serving as a charming small-scale study which provides an interesting insight into the artist's technique in draughtsmanship.
