About the Item

Henri van Daalhoff 1867-1953 I Dutch Girl with Hoop Signed (lower left) Oil on canvas This radiant landscape by the Dutch artist Henri van Daalhoff exemplifies the artist's masterful approach to luminosity and experimental technique, revealing his unique position within Dutch Post-Impressionist circles at the turn of the 20th century. Girl with Hoop is a stunning feat of precision and meticulous brushwork that transports viewers into a sunny summer day in a picturesque Dutch village. The composition demonstrates van Daalhoff's exceptional command of pointillist technique. This approach, which he acquired through his association with Jan Toorop and his patron H.P. Bremmer, creates a shimmering, dream-like quality that brings this quaint waterside scene to life. The vibrant yellow of the bridge contrasts brilliantly against the cool blues of the water, while the verdant greens of the surrounding landscape establish a harmonious balance throughout the composition. The young girl with her hoop is the lone figure in this scene, creating a surreal quality, far before the Surrealist movement took hold. The village houses, rendered in warm oranges and ochres, create a rhythmic pattern along the horizon, their geometric forms simplifying reality into a poetic vision. This reduction of complex forms to their essential elements reflects van Daalhoff's philosophical approach to painting, which sought to transcend mere representation to capture deeper emotional and spiritual truths. The effect produces a landscape between reality and dream, embodying the artist's reputation as a "poet-painter." Henri van Daalhoff was born in Haarlem and later settled in The Hague, where he developed his singular artistic vision. Throughout his long career, he garnered recognition for his ability to translate abstract concepts such as meditation, purity and sorrow into visual poetry. Van Daalhoff operated at the intersection of symbolism and Post-Impressionism, developing a highly personal style that set him apart from his contemporaries. Today, his works can be found in major museums including the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam and the Kröller Müller Museum in Otterlo.
