Louwrens Hanedoes (14 July 1822, Woudrichem - 9 February 1905, Woudrichem) was a Dutch landscape painter; in the Romantic style at first, later turning to Realism.
From 1839 to 1840, he studied at the Royal Academy of Art with Cornelis Kruseman and Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, [1] who was especially influential on his style. From the beginning, he preferred landscapes, travelling to mountainous areas such as the Pyrenees, Switzerland and the Eifel. His favorite spots in the Netherlands were Arnhem and Oosterbeek. [2]
Shortly after 1850, he became one of the first Dutch painters to visit Barbizon, [3] where he was strongly influenced by the Barbizon school of artists and changed to a more realistic style of painting. Many critics consider his work to be a precursor to the Hague School.
In 1863, he was named a Ridder in the Order of Leopold. [1] After that point, his productivity declined and he eventually retired to his family estate in Woudrichem, where he died in 1905. Streets were named after him in Benoordenhout and Eindhoven.
Woudrichem is a city and former municipality in the province of North Brabant in the Netherlands.

The Barbizon school of painters were part of an art movement towards Realism in art, which arose in the context of the dominant Romantic Movement of the time. The Barbizon school was active roughly from 1830 through 1870. It takes its name from the village of Barbizon, France, on the edge of the Forest of Fontainebleau, where many of the artists gathered. Most of their works were landscape painting, but several of them also painted landscapes with farmworkers, and genre scenes of village life. Some of the most prominent features of this school are its tonal qualities, color, loose brushwork, and softness of form.

Karel van Mander (I) or Carel van Mander I was a Flemish painter, poet, art historian and art theoretician, who established himself in the Dutch Republic in the latter part of his life. He is mainly remembered as a biographer of Early Netherlandish painters and Northern Renaissance artists in his Schilder-boeck. As an artist and art theoretician he played a significant role in the spread and development of Northern Mannerism in the Dutch Republic.
Landscape painting, also known as landscape art, is the depiction of natural scenery such as mountains, valleys, trees, rivers, and forests, especially where the main subject is a wide view—with its elements arranged into a coherent composition. In other works, landscape backgrounds for figures can still form an important part of the work. Sky is almost always included in the view, and weather is often an element of the composition. Detailed landscapes as a distinct subject are not found in all artistic traditions, and develop when there is already a sophisticated tradition of representing other subjects.
The Hague School is a group of artists who lived and worked in The Hague between 1860 and 1890. Their work was heavily influenced by the realist painters of the French Barbizon school. The painters of the Hague school generally made use of relatively somber colors, which is why the Hague School is sometimes called the Gray School.

California Tonalism was art movement that existed in California from circa 1890 to 1920. Tonalist are usually intimate works, painted with a limited palette.
