  Dit geweldige schilderij toont een prachtig gezicht op de skyline van Parijs met de Sacre Coeur, de Eiffeltoren en het reuzenrad (‘La Grande Roue’) . Het werk is geschilderd in het begin van de 20e eeuw. De kijker staat op het terras van het monumentale Parc de Saint-Cloud (Domaine National de Saint-Cloud). Dit park, dat als een van de mooiste van Europa geldt, kent een rijke historie die teruggaat tot de 16e eeuw. Het park hoorde oorspronkelijk bij het Chateau de Saint-Cloud dat door bombardementen werd vernietigd en uiteindelijk in 1892 werd afgebroken. Het is bijzonder om je te realiseren dat de Eiffeltoren nog niet zolang bestond. De toren is gebouwd voor de Wereldtentoonstelling in 1889. Dit werk is door ons aangekocht bij Maurice Hermans, die in 2023 helaas is overleden. Het werk is afkomstig uit de collectie van zijn vader Toon Hermans, de beroemde cabaretier. Achterop het werk zit een collectiesticker van Toon Hermans.
  
• A proposito di opere artista

  François 'Frans' Hogerwaard (Weltevreden, Java, 10 November 1882 – The Hague, 15 June 1921) was a Dutch impressionist painter, known for his figure paintings and landscapes in which light plays a central role. His work shows influences from Art Nouveau and is characterized by a refined technique and a sensitive approach to his subjects.

  Early life and education

  Born in the then Dutch East Indies, Hogerwaard moved to the Netherlands at a young age. He began his artistic education at the School for Art and Crafts in Haarlem and continued this at the Rijksacademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam from 1904 to 1906. During his studies he became friends with artists such as Tjeerd Bottema and Wim de Haas.

  Career and travels

  In 1907 Hogerwaard traveled to Paris with Piet van der Hem, where he made the etching "Het huisje van Berlioz". After returning to the Netherlands in 1908, he won the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1910 with the work "Moses and the Battle against the Amalekites". This prize allowed him to travel extensively and study in cities such as Rome, Florence, Venice, Madrid and Algiers. In 1913 he returned to Paris and settled in Saint-Cloud, a suburb of the French capital.

  Style and theme

  Hogerwaard was known for his impressionistic style, in which he paid special attention to the depiction of light and atmosphere. His oeuvre includes both figure pieces and landscapes, often with a worldly character. Influences of Art Nouveau are visible in his portraits, which contributes to the elegance and refinement of his work.

  Personal life and legacy

  On 15 April 1918, Hogerwaard married Marie Constance Françoise de Bruijn Kops. After working in Oosterbeek for a few months, the couple settled in The Hague. Hogerwaard died on 15 June 1921 at the age of 38. Despite his short life, he left behind an impressive oeuvre that is still appreciated for his technical skill and sensitive approach to Impressionism.

  His works are included in various collections and are still exhibited and traded, which testifies to his lasting influence on Dutch painting.
