Abstract

Panel Discussion with Exhibition Catalog Essayists James Bratt, Craig Hanson, Henry Luttikhuizen, Lisa VanArragon, for "Between Nature and Nationality: The Hague School in the Nineteenth Century," presented in the Center Art Gallery at Calvin College from October 5 - November 17. In the 1870's, a group of Dutch artists began to gather and work alongside each other in and around The Hague. The earliest members of the group included Jozef Israëls, Jacob Maris, Anton Mauve and H. W. Mesdag, and collectively they and their colleagues came to be identified with the city. The 'Hague School' label was appropriate since the surrounding landscape and shoreline , together with the rural population who worked the fields and sea, provided the subjects for most of the pictures produced by these artists over the final few decades of the nineteenth century.
