From the late 1920s, Ouwersloot has been seen as a typical Dutch example of the Nieuwe Zakelijkheid, with a certain preference for nighttime scenes. This small collection of works by Jan Ouwersloot shows street scenes from his native Amsterdam, where he settled in 1923. His peers, Gerrits and Johan van Hell, painted prosaic street scenes in a more stylized. Ouwersloot's paintings are more realistic. His subjects are always topographically correct. Ouwersloot's Night View of the Leidseplein in Amsterdam (1934) is a particularly striking composition, which embodies all the qualities that this artistic movement represents. Ouwersloot's composition is a rare example of a Neue Sachlichkeit work that is not a portrait, by an artist whose biography offers no moral barriers to being considered for the Luxembourg national collection.
