Description from the seller
Jan Sluijters Sr. (1881-1957)
Dimensions of work: 32 x 40 cm
Technique: Watercolor on paper
Provenance:
- Christie's Amsterdam 2002, Netherlands
- Private collection, Netherlands
Jan Sluijters belongs together with Leo Gestel and Piet Mondriaan to the first Dutch ‘moderns’. At the beginning of the 20th century Sluijters seeks connection with the European avant-garde in Paris. There he becomes acquainted at the Salon des Independants with neo-impressionism, fauvism, luminism, cubism and expressionism, new art movements with which he experiments in almost all of the following 15 years. As an ambitious and virtuoso painter, Sluijters is in search of new forms of expression and introduces light and color into Dutch painting.
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition we have our own in-house framing workshop, celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to use this service, of course we would love to hear. #dumaycollection
