Hermanus Koekkoek de Jonge (Amsterdam, 8 December 1836 – London, May 1909[2]) was a Dutch painter, best known for his seascapes. He also worked under the pseudonyms Jan van Couver and Louis van Straaten.

Descendant of a family of painters
Hermanus Koekkoek de Jonge was part of the well-known Koekkoek painters’ family. He was the grandson of Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek, cousin of the renowned landscape painter Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, and son of his brother Hermanus Koekkoek de Oude (1815-1887). His son Stephen Robert Koekkoek (1887-1934) also chose the painter’s craft.

Life and Work
Hermanus Koekkoek de Jonge, like his brothers Willem, Johannes Hermanus Barend, and Barend Hendrik, was educated by his father, who had just established himself in Amsterdam. In the 1860s he traveled regularly to London, where he settled definitively in 1869. There he ran a successful art dealership and sold, in addition to his own works, many paintings by his family members. In particular, the great popularity of his uncle Barend Cornelis in England was largely due to him.

As a painter he focused mainly on seascapes, river scenes, and coastal views, in the Romantic-Realist style that characterized most of his family’s work. He favored scenes where ships battled their way through stormy waves. His later work is less romantic and shows pronounced influences of the Hague School. During his London period he often worked under the pseudonyms Jan van Couver and Louis van Straaten. He frequently collaborated with painter Lion Schulman (1851-1943).
