Collection: Jan Toorop

Jan Toorop was a Dutch-Indonesian artist known for his distinctive style that blended Symbolism, Art Nouveau, and elements of Impressionism. His early work was influenced by pointillism and the decorative elegance of Art Nouveau, but he soon developed a highly personal visual language marked by flowing lines, spiritual themes, and intricate, almost mystical compositions. Toorop’s art often explored religion, mythology, and human emotion, reflecting both his Javanese heritage and European avant-garde influences. A key figure in Dutch modernism, his work bridged cultures and movements, leaving a unique mark on early 20th-century art.
