William Frederick Hulk Art

Dutch, 1852-1922

William Frederick Hulk was a landscape artist born in Holland in 1852, adopting England as his country after moving there as a young man. He was born into a family of artists. He was the son of the Dutch marine and canal scene artist Abraham Hulk Senior (1813–97) and the brother of Abraham Hulk Junior (1851–1922). His uncle, Johannes (John) Frederick Hulk (1829–1911) was a canal and townscape painter. His father traveled widely even going to America before settling in London in 1870 with William and his brother Abraham. Hulk was taught art by his father and he soon became a well-regarded landscape artist and was a prolific exhibitor. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1876–98 sometimes showing as many as 7 paintings a year. He also exhibited many works at the Royal Society of British Artists, the New Watercolour Society and the Royal Institute of Oil Painters. Hulk lived in Guildford and painted many scenes of the surrounding Surrey countryside. He specialized in paintings of rural landscapes usually with the inclusion of cattle, and the play of light upon water.

Tree Landscape, Expressionist Oil on Panel, Signed, 1940s, Framed
Located in Stockholm, SE
A vibrant painting depicting an avenue lined with poplar trees in fall colors, prominently featuring a very large, centrally placed yellow poplar. Possibly an American poplar. The artist, Agda Holst, has employed a diverse palette of colors to the poplars, creating a dynamic and colorful composition. This oil on panel is signed and dated by Holst in 1948. The work exemplifies her use of color and form, characteristics that defined her artistic practice throughout her career. Agda Holst was a Swedish modernist painter known for her precise study of form, stylized compositions, and ability to merge structured geometry with expressive color. Her works, often still lifes, portraits, and figure studies, reflect a balance between naturalistic representation and modernist influences such as Cubism and New Objectivity. Holst's artistic journey began in 1907 at the Académie Colarossi in Paris, where she studied under Christian Krohg. Seeking further refinement, she moved to Munich between 1910 and 1911, studying with Julius Exter, known for his teachings in portrait and genre painting. In 1911–1912, she returned to Paris to study under Kees van Dongen, whose bold use of color and strong contrasts left a lasting impression on her work. The early 1920s marked another period of study in Paris, this time under André Lhote, who instilled in her a structured approach to composition and geometric clarity. Holst’s first public exhibition took place in 1916, when she displayed paintings in a bookstore...
