About Standing Nude (Stehender Akt) George Breitner Dutch Impressionist Painting
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.
