Omschrijving
Leickert was the most important pupil of Andreas Schelfhout, he gained renown as painter of Romantic summer- and winterlandscapes and muted river and beach scenes. This first monograph on Charles Leickert is based on extensive art historical research. Harry Kraaij places the painter in the context of artistic developments in the Netherlands. He reviews Leickerts biographical data in chronological order, interspersing these with information concerning the master’s training, influence of his teachers, and the critical reception and marketing of his work. This book will be invaluable to scholars, art historian, librarians and dealers alike. [romantiek]
