Théophile de Bock
Kingdom of the Netherlands, 1851–1904
Théophile de Bock was a Kingdom of the Netherlands Hague School painter. 9 works are cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum, most of them oil paintings. Théophile de Bock was born in The Hague.
Théophile Emile Achille de Bock (14 January 1851 in The Hague – 22 November 1904 in Haarlem) was a Dutch painter belonging to the Hague School. Although many denigrate De Bock's work as too gray and too sketchy, Hague School champions love his work. Even Van Gogh was convinced of De Bocks "artistic temperament", although he eventually found his choice of subject too limited and tried to get De Bock to paint figure studies. But De Bock stuck to the subject he was good at, the Dutch landscapes.
