Description from the seller
Oil painting on panel, view of ARNHEM by Paul Baum (Painter, 1859 – 1932)
Oil painting on panel, view of the city of ARNHEM by Paul Baum, signed bottom left ...... dimensions 18 x 25 cm; the antique wooden frame is offered; overall dimensions 30 cm x 37; all in perfect condition.
Between 1890 and 1894, Baum left Germany to settle in Arnhem proper and in nearby Velp. Historical records confirm that after his trip to Paris in March 1890, Baum left the Dachau colony for good and chose the Netherlands. In the four-year period between 1890 and 1894, before settling in Sint Anna ter Muiden, the artist actually spent long and significant periods precisely in Arnhem and in the adjoining Velp area, renowned for its parks and dense vegetation (part of Velp).
The stylistic turning point: It was during the period spent in Arnhem that Baum began to move away from academic teachings and from the Barbizon School painting. He was fascinated by the light of the Dutch landscape and began adopting a much lighter and brighter palette.
In the painting the tall tower of the Church of Saint Eusebius rises prominently.
Note in the background the old pile-and-boat bridge of Arnhem before it was dismantled in the twentieth century.
