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.
The Port of Rotterdam, 1857.
In 1862, Claude Monet (then 22 years old), Eugène Boudin and Johan Barthold Jongkind, who work together on the coast, begin to completely paint outdoors. [1]
Painting outdoors (en plein air), directly from nature, later became an important practice of the landscape work of the Impressionists.
