Havengezicht, an oil painting by Hobbe Smith (1862–1942) from the Netherlands in the 19th century, depicting a busy harbour with ships, hand-signed, in reasonable condition, 35 × 46 cm including the frame.
Description from the seller
In this painting we see a busy harbour with several sailing ships and small boats on the water. In the background there are buildings and even more ships. The sky is cloudy, but the light colors keep the painting vibrant. Smith painted with loose brushstrokes and mainly used gray, blue and brown tones. The ships and the water give a good impression of daily life in a Dutch harbour.
Hobbe Smith (1862-1942) was a Dutch painter known for his realistic and impressionistic works. He often painted everyday life, landscapes and maritime scenes. Smith studied at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam, where he was taught by, among others, August Allebé. In addition to oil paintings, he also made watercolors and etchings. In his work, the play of light and color played an important role.
