Woodcut comes from the Oeuvre book by Jan Mankes from 1927
A great Dutch master artist, who unfortunately only lived to be 31 years old. His entire oeuvre, created between 1907 and 1918, includes approximately 150 paintings, mostly small formats, some 100 drawings and over 40 sheets of graphics, mainly etchings and woodcuts.
Jan Mankes has gone down in art history as “Holland’s most tranquil painter”. He died young of tuberculosis, something that has contributed to the myth-making surrounding his artistry.
