AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This work by Jan den Hengst is a colorful still life of flowers. In a simple, light-colored vase stands a large bouquet with flowers in, among other colors, red, blue, purple, yellow, pink and white. The flowers are painted fairly loosely and expressively: Den Hengst does not render every detail exactly, but uses visible brushstrokes and blocks of color to convey the shapes of the flowers. The calm beige background and vase form a strong contrast with the exuberant bouquet, drawing all attention to the flowers. The work thus has a cheerful and lively appearance and fits well with the flower still lifes that frequently appear in Den Hengst’s oeuvre.
Johannes Gerardus (Jan) den Hengst (1904–1983) was a Dutch painter, watercolorist and draftsman. He was born in Delft and later worked in, among other places, Hilversum and Amsterdam. Den Hengst was self-taught and worked mainly in an impressionistic style. He painted landscapes, cityscapes, flowers and still lifes; in his later work his style became somewhat more realistic and he used brighter colors. Together with his fellow artists Jan Korthals and Jan Rijlaarsdam he travelled, among other places, to France, Spain and Italy to paint. In addition, Den Hengst was a member of artist associations such as Arti et Amicitiae and Sint Lucas in Amsterdam.
