Theo Nieuwenhuis (Dutch, 1866-1951)

Gold Carps, 1894

Watercolor & graphite on white wove paper, in frame: 94 × 123.2 × 6 cm (37 × 48 1/2 × 2 3/8 in.)

On display at Harvard Art Museums

“An accomplished watercolorist, graphic artist, and furniture and interior designer, Nieuwenhuis is highly regarded as a leading figure of Dutch Art Nouveau. Trained in Amsterdam, he traveled to Germany, Austria, and France, including a two-year stint in Paris from 1888 to 1890, just at the beginning of a craze for Art Nouveau that quickly spread throughout Europe. This engaging work, in both subject matter and overall pattern-like composition, evidences the artist's synthesis of international influences, especially from Japanese art.

The frame is original, designed by the artist as an integral part of the complete work. The engraved monogram is that of the work's first collector, Sara de Swart (1861-1951), a sculptor and protégé of Rodin and a collector of Van Gogh and other contemporary artists. She was a well-known figure in Dutch art circles, raising eyebrows for her unconventional, openly queer lifestyle.”

Tile Art is an informative volume that traces the rich tradition of these sumptuous tiles and fully illustrates their varied designs. The author deals lucidly and extensively with various manufacturing and decorating processes, as well as with the most significant designers and potteries in Britain, on the Continent and in the United States. Dutch Delfware tiles are described in detail, as are Portuguese azulejos, Italian maiolica panels, Scandinavian stove surrounds, British and American Arts and Crafts exemples and French and Ductch Art Nouveau creations. The contributions of artists and designers such as William Morris, Walter Crane, Vanessa Bell and Louis Comfort Tiffany are noted, and the technical advances pioneered by such companies as Mintons, Pilkingtons, Low and Maw are described in relation to the increasing sophistication in tile design during the 19th century. 

Libro sulla storia delle piastrelle in ceramica decorative. Una storia che inizia dall’ Antica Persia, con le facciate e gli interni dei templi decorati secondo l’arte islamica. L’arte della ceramica si diffonderà successivamente in tutto il mondo, arricchendo castelli medioevali, chiese Vittoriane, negozi e abitazioni domestiche dei giorni nostri.
