Kimono Masterly

Discover the masterpiece, the Kimono Masterly. This exclusive double-sided kimono was developed especially for the prestigious Biennale Masterly The Hague. The print of the fabric is inspired by the work of the famous Dutch old master Aert Schouman (1710 – 1792). As the most important animal painter of the eighteenth century, his watercolors depicting exotic birds are known as the most beautiful ever made.

The absolute highlight of Aert Schouman’s work is the complete chamber painting of Willem V of Huis ten Bosch with his extraordinary animal collection. This extraordinary work of art currently hangs in the residential palace of King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima.

The Kimono Masterly is not only a tribute to Aert Schouman, but also to the beautiful Dutch landscape. On the inside of the kimono, Esmee has written her ode to Aert Schouman and the Dutch landscapes. Cloudy skies, a common element used by many Dutch Master painters, form the basis of the pattern.

This beautiful silk kimono can be worn, or it can serve as an impressive art object on the wall. It is a unique and exclusive piece, as only one copy was made. This ensures you have a valuable and special garment that no one else will have.
