Description from the seller
Beautiful work by Willem C. Rip, a Dutch painter and a very dedicated follower of the Hague School. Born in 1856 in Rotterdam, he showed his drawing talent at an early age. At fourteen, he apprenticed with a lithographer and took evening classes at the Rotterdam Academy, where he received several awards.
On the advice of his teacher Van Eysden, he studied the work of B.C. Koekkoek intensively and worked in nature for a long time. His solid education led to quick recognition: in 1873, he won a silver medal, and thanks to a royal subsidy, he was able to study in Munich.
After his return, Rip gained fame with Dutch polder landscapes, water features, and vast skies. In 1888, he settled in The Hague, where, among others, Mesdag and Israëls visited his studio. His work received numerous awards, was purchased by the royal family, and was highly regarded internationally, especially in America and London.
This is a very sunny, blonde painting, considered one of the better works by this artist. Neatly framed behind glass. (To capture the photo well, this work was photographed without glass.)
