Gerard Delfgaauw (1882–1947) – Windmill Landscape – Oil on canvas

Beautifully painted Dutch landscape with a traditional windmill by a canal, executed in the distinctive atmospheric style of Gerard Delfgaauw.

The scene captures a serene moment in the flat Dutch countryside under a cloudy sky, rendered with loose, expressive brushstrokes and a refined sense of light and movement.
The painting is signed in full at the lower right: G.J. Delfgaauw.
Presented in its original richly ornamented frame, which shows some minor age-related wear, typical for its age.
The painting itself is in good and stable condition with fine craquelure consistent with age.
