AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This oil painting is a beautiful work by Willem van der Nat. The artist often depicted goats, but this piece stands out. Especially notable is the depiction of the coat: the black and white hairs seem to stand in all directions, and on the head, a small crest can even be seen, just like young goats can have.

Dimensions: 34 cm x 54 cm
Dimensions with frame: 50 cm x 70 cm
The work is in an exclusive list, finished with gold leaf.
The work is signed in the lower left corner.

Willem Hendrik van der Nat (Leiden, 1864–1929) was a versatile artist: painter, draftsman, watercolorist, sculptor, etcher, illustrator, and lithographer. He received his first drawing lessons at a young age and later studied in The Hague and Leiden, where he became friends with artist Floris Verster and art critic H.P. Bremmer.

Initially, Van der Nat worked as an illustrator and lithographer, but around 1900 he fully dedicated himself to painting. His style evolved from the influence of the Hague School to a more expressive, colorful approach, partly inspired by Van Gogh and Millet. He gained fame with his paintings of sheep and goats, often created during his stays in Drenthe, but he also painted still lifes, landscapes, and Spanish scenes.

Van der Nat was a co-founder of the Leiden artists' association De Kunst om De Kunst and is considered part of the core of the so-called Leiden Impressionists—a group of painters distinguished by their loose brushwork and vivid use of color. They painted in and around the city of Leiden. The movement is related to the Hague School. His work is represented in the collections of several museums, such as the Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal in Leiden and the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterloo.

A viewing is of course possible.
