About Hendrik Voogd

Lived 1768 – 1839 (aged 71). Hendrik Voogd was a Dutch painter and printmaker.

Hendrik Voogd (; 10 July 1768 – 4 September 1839) was a Dutch painter and printmaker, who was active in Italy.

Life Hendrik Voogd was born on 10 July 1768 in Amsterdam in the Dutch Republic.

Beginning in 1783, Voogd studied at a local Academy and then later apprenticed under the wallpaper painter Jurriaan Andriessen. The financial aid of the Amsterdam art collector D. Versteegh (1751–1822) enabled him to depart in 1788 for Rome to obtain further training in landscape painting.

While in Italy, Voogd befriended many famous landscape painters, such as Nicolas-Didier Boguet, Johann Christian Reinhart and Johann Martin von Rohden. Voogd died on 4 September 1839 in Rome in the Papal States. However, in spite of these influences Voogd still retained influences from his Dutch heritage. He experimented with unusual lighting effects and luxuriant foliage, and from 1806 onwards cattle began to feature prominently in his drawings and paintings. Some of his works can be found at the Rijksmuseum.
