biography of Hendrik 'Henk' Chabot

The fact that Hendrik Chabot lived near Rotterdam did not encourage him to paint the vital, active city life. Rather, he focused on figures, peasants and workers, and finally also on landscapes. In particular, he found inspiration in the flat polders around Bergschenhoek, where his studio was located. His landscapes, strongly set up under high, worked-out skies, express a fierce emotion towards his subject, to which color and form were added. The emphatic touch of his brushstrokes and the bright opulence of his yellow, ocher, brown and green were the means for this. What was dear to his heart was to give shape to the connection between man and nature.
