Description
S'Gravesande, Charles Storm Van (Dutch 1841-1924) Drypoint Engraving. Titled Holland 1841, Signed. Etching Depicting a calm River w/ row boat and trees to the left. At the turn of the twentieth century, the most internationally acknowledged Dutch artist was not Jongkind nor Israels but Charles Storm van S'Gravesande. Unlike the artists of the Hague School and other Dutch regionalists, Charles Storm Van S'Gravesande developed a thoroughly modern and personal style. He spent many years in Germany, France and Belgium, studying the art of these nations and befriending a number of contemporary artists such as Felicien Rops, who introduced Storm van S'Gravesande to the art of etching and engraving.
Charles Storm Van S'Gravesande was also a very accomplished painter and lithographer. Most of his career, however, was devoted to the art of etching and he completed over four hundred landscape and marine views in this medium during his life. Most of Charles Storm Van S'Gravesande's drypoint engravings date from 1890 to the beginning of the First World War (1914) and it was during this era that his art won its highest acclaim when the government of Holland knighted him for his work and when he was awarded the prestigious Gold Medal at the 1900 Universal Exposition in Paris. Sailboats on the Maas is one of the artist's largest and most important drypoint engravings. image 12"x8.5"; sheet 13.5"x9.75"; mat 20"x15"
