Explore the secrets of the Haagse School art movement and journey back to a time of fishing boats, fishermen, and the first railway lines. In the thriving art scene of The Hague around 1860, renowned artists like Jozef Israëls, the Maris brothers, Jan Hendrik Weissenbruch, and Hendrik Willem Mesdag settled in the city, capturing their surroundings in innovative ways. Primarily depicting the Dutch landscape, these artists utilized readily available paint in tubes and newly established railroads to venture outdoors for their oil studies. While the landscapes were realistically painted, the emphasis was on portraying light and atmosphere rather than exact representation. Willem Maris famously quoted, "I do not paint cows, I paint light." To delve deeper into this art movement, Kunstmuseum Den Haag hosts evening events for each district, including free transportation, drinks, music, and a program. Attendees can join a preparatory lecture on Wednesday, March 20, before visiting the museum free of charge. Secure a spot for this enlightening lecture promptly as space is limited. Don't miss out on this educational opportunity presented by Kunstmuseum Den Haag.
