Dutch, 1819–1891
Johan Barthold Jongkind (1819–1891) was a Dutch painter and printmaker born in Lattrop, Overijssel, near the German border. He was known for his marine landscapes, painted in a free style, and was regarded as a forerunner of Impressionism. Jongkind worked in both the Netherlands and France, often depicting the Seine and scenes near Notre-Dame de Paris. He painted watercolors outdoors as studies for his oil paintings, which featured vigorous brushwork and strong contrasts.
