The Mauritshuis Museum hosts the first ever monographic exhibition of works by Dutch 17th-century artist Philips Wouwerman. While Wouwerman was highly regarded in his time and up until the 19th century, today his work is largely overlooked. Curator Quentin Buvelot is seeking to reintroduce the artist to a wider public as one of the main figures of 17th-century Dutch painting. The Mauritshuis holds a large collection of works by the artist that were previously owned by the Dutch royal family.
Chronologically organised, the exhibition consists of 33 paintings, a third of which originate from private collections and are previously unseen by the public. “It was time to finally show Philips Wouwerman at the Mauritshuis,” Buvelot said, “as he is among the great painters of the Dutch Golden Age.”
Wouwerman, who is known mainly for his equine paintings, is shown to be a versatile artist engaging with a variety of themes in landscapes, religious paintings and genre scenes. “There will be many surprises for the visitor,” Buvelot promises. The show includes the 1655-60 painting Battle Scene at War. This “complicated painting”, as Buvelot describes it, emphasises Wouwerman’s painterly talent and sets the tone of the exhibition. Also on show are 10 drawings, several of which have recently been attributed to Wouwerman, which will be a “revelation for the visitor”, Buvelot says.
