Sam Schellink (1876-1958) - Hollands weidelandschap met drie grazende koeien bij een boerderij

Sam Schellink (1876-1958) - Holland's pasture landscape with grazing cows near a farm

Description

Beautiful and atmospheric Dutch pasture landscape by the well-known artist Sam Schellink (1876-1958).
In this characteristic, broadly laid-out work we see three cattle, depicted in detail, quietly grazing in an expansive polder landscape. On the right in the background stands an idyllic farm with a distinctive tree, flanked by a soft, layered cloudscape that is typical for Dutch painting from this period.
Sam Schellink is primarily known as one of the leading Delft/Haag school plateel painters of the famous Haagse Rozenburg factory, where he excelled in refined Art Nouveau décors. In addition, he was a very skilled painter, watercolourist and draughtsman. This work perfectly shows his great compositional strength and his ability to capture light and atmosphere on the Dutch countryside.
