After the strike is a 1903 unspecified by Jan Toorop, held at Kröller-Müller Museum.
This painting shows a group of people walking in a field. They are dressed in simple, old-fashioned clothing and seem to be heading somewhere together. The colors are muted, with lots of browns and greens. The scene feels quiet and serious. The people are all looking down or straight ahead, not smiling or interacting much. The background is a flat field with some trees or buildings in the distance, but it's hard to make out details. The painting has a soft, dreamy quality to it. If you like this kind of artwork, you might want to look into the technique of sfumato.
Johannes Theodorus "Jan" Toorop was a Dutch painter who worked in various styles, including Symbolism, Art Nouveau, and Pointillism. His early work was influenced by the Amsterdam Impressionism movement.
