Description from the seller
Artist – Dutch School (19th century)
Holland's Landscape
Medium/technique – oil paint on panel
Dimensions – 16 × 18.5 cm (panel), 32 × 34.5 cm (with frame)
Style – Hague School
Signature – hand-signed monogram 'JVB'
Condition – paint loss in the middle-upper area, small tear in the panel upper right, no retouchings under UV.
Introduction
This charming 19th-century Dutch landscape is a characteristic example of the Hague School, where atmosphere, light, and a direct experience of nature are central. The small panel size enhances the intimate character and invites attentive viewing.
Performance
The landscape depicts a peaceful rural scene with a group of trees, a farm by the water, and a small path in the foreground, on which a figure with a dog is shown. The low horizon and the wide sky create an open, spacious effect, while water and shoreline connect the composition.
Technique and use of color
The painter worked with oil paint on panel, visible in the refined yet loose brushwork. The color palette mainly consists of greens, browns, and earth tones, complemented by soft blues and grays in the sky. Warm accents in the buildings bring balance and liveliness.
Style and context
The attention to everyday nature, the subdued tonal palette, and the emphasis on atmosphere clearly place this work within the tradition of the Hague School. The painting aligns with the work of Dutch landscape painters who elevated the ordinary Dutch landscape as a subject.
Style peers: Jozef Israëls, Anton Mauve, Jacob Maris, Camille Corot, Jean-François Millet.
Condition
There is limited paint loss in the upper part and a small tear in the panel at the top right. Under UV light, no later retouchings have been detected. The work is professionally framed and is offered without a minimum price (No Reserve).
The work 'Hollands Landschap' is in a new gilded bronze-golden wooden frame.
