Description

Saskia Boelsums dramatic photographs of Dutch landscapes reflect on the atmospheric paintings of the Golden Age painters such as Jacob van Ruisdael and Jan van Goyen, but her work is clearly seeped in her own experience of nature. Lashing rain over the sea, sun breaking through storm clouds, and fields of flowers bathed in an otherworldly light: these images are the result of hours and days of waiting to capture the perfect moment. In this, her second book of landscape photographs, she presents not only Dutch landscapes and seascapes, but also landscapes photographed on visits to Germany, Switzerland, and New York.
