Oil painting on panel
Dimensions: 28 cm x 36 cm
Dimensions with frame: 40 cm x 40 cm
Signed lower right
Willem Hendrik van der Nat (Leiden, 1864–1929) was a versatile artist: painter, draftsman, watercolourist, sculptor, etcher, illustrator and lithographer. He received his first drawing lessons at a young age and later studied in The Hague and Leiden, where he became friends with the artist Floris Verster and art critic H. P. Bremmer.
Initially Van der Nat worked as an illustrator and lithographer, but around 1900 he dedicated himself entirely to painting. His style developed from the influence of the Hague School toward a more expressive, colorful approach, partly inspired by Van Gogh and Millet. He gained fame with his paintings of sheep and goats, often created during his stays in Drenthe, but he also painted still lifes, landscapes and Spanish scenes.
Van der Nat was a co-founder of the Leiden artists’ association De Kunst om De Kunst and is regarded as part of the core of the so-called Leiden Impressionists — a group of painters distinguished by their loose brushwork and vivid color use. They painted in and around the city of Leiden. The movement is related to the Hague School. A biography has been written by Willem L. Baars. (not for sale). His work is represented in the collections of several museums, such as the Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal in Leiden and the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterloo.
