Johan Barthold Jongkind (Lattrop, Netherlands, 1819 – Grenoble, 1891) was a Dutch painter and printmaker. He is considered a precursor of Impressionism whose watercolors influenced Eugene Boudin and Claude Monet. Jongkind is known as "the painter of Honfleur and Paris streets". He contributed to make watercoloring an art by itself.
Both, Baudelaire and Zola praised Jongkind's work.
