Publisher's Synopsis

This collection presents the finest and most characteristic examples of landscape paintings, drawings and watercolours by Dutch artists of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. They have been selected from numerous public and private collections in The Netherlands and elsewhere. - - The artists featured share an intense love of nature and their work runs the gamut of such varied phenomena as the painted wall decorations of the eighteenth century, the Romantic landscapes of Koekkoek and Schelfhout in the middle of the nineteenth century, the Impressionist renderings of the Hague School, represented by Roelofs, Mauve and Weissenbruch, and ending around the turn of the century with the innovatory ideas of artists such as Toorop, Van Gogh, Sluijters and Mondrian. - - No matter where the artists found their inspiration, each and every one of these masterpieces radiates a profound and intimate relationship with the landscape.
