Important note: We try all that we can in order to describe our art products as clearly as we can and to display them visually. Nevertheless, the colors of the print products, as well as the printing might diverge marginally from the image on the monitor. Depending on your settings of your screen and the condition of the surface, color pigments can unfortunately not be printed as realistically as the digital version depicted here. Given that our art prints are processed and printed manually, there might as well be slight discrepancies in the exact position and the size of the motif.

Artwork description by the museum's website (© Copyright - Rijksmuseum - www.rijksmuseum.nl)
The poet Verwey was the young leader of the Tachtigers (those of the 80s) – an influential group of writers and artists who around 1885 wanted to shake up cultural life. Unlike most of his comrades, Verwey came from a working-class background. In this portrait, Jan Veth, a fellow Tachtiger, captured Verwey’s humble origins and rebellious nature. The portrait can thus be seen as the visualization of the Beweging van Tachtig (’80s Movement).
