AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A splendid old work by Toorop.
Although its age is evident, you can tell from both the frame and the back that this is a piece from the 1920s of the last century.
The size of the work without the frame is 22.5 x 25.5, almost as large as the frame.
There is a bit of reflection in the photos; in real life it is more beautiful.
Johannes Theodorus (Jan) Toorop, also: Jean Theodor Toorop, (Poerworedjo (Dutch East Indies), 20 December 1858 – The Hague, 3 March 1928) was one of the most important Dutch visual artists from the period 1880-1910.
Initially he painted in an impressionistic style, but through pointillism he developed into a symbolist painter.
He was also active as a portrait painter and designed ceramics, advertising posters and book bindings. Dutch Art Nouveau is often associated with his work. In the last twenty years of his life he was strongly inspired by Roman Catholicism.
He was the father of Charley Toorop, the grandfather of the artist Edgar Fernhout and the filmmaker John Fernhout, and the great-grandfather of Rik Fernhout.
