About Reclining Nude (Liegender Akt) George Breitner Dutch Impressionist Painting
Reclining Nude is a painting from photographic print of Marie Jordan Nude, Lying on the Bed from about 1888 is one of a series which he made at about the same time that he was working on a painting of her. Although conventionally dated to about 1887, there can be little doubt that Breitner’s Reclining Nude was based on that print. George Hendrik Breitner was a Dutch painter and photographer. An important figure in Amsterdam Impressionism, he is noted especially for his paintings of street scenes and harbours in a realistic style. He painted outside, and became interested in photography as a means of documenting street life and atmospheric effects – rainy weather in particular – as reference materials for his paintings. A pupil of August Allebé , George Breitner was a painter of a declared Impressionist setting. His works, according to some historians, would have influenced both the painting of Vincent van Gogh and that of Piet Mondrian . He was a point of reference for the Dutch school as long as Impressionism represented contemporary art in the turn of the century.
