About the Item
Nicolaes (or Claes) Molenaer (Haarlem c. 1630 - 1676) attributable
Winter landscape with village, frozen river and travellers
Oil on canvas
63 x 77 cm. - framed 82 x 95 cm.
The painting depicts a winter landscape with a typical 17th century Dutch countryside dwelling, overlooking the banks of a partly frozen river and animated by the many characters going about their daily activities.
Observing the details closely, we can discover a series of 'tales within a tale', where various figures animate the scene, showing a cross-section of popular life: thus we see a couple of wayfarers, the man tries to warm his hands by bringing them closer to his mouth, a mother is waiting on the doorstep for her husband with her young son returning from work, another group of figures with skates on their feet move across the frozen sheet of water, a typical winter activity as well as a means of transport.
Following in the footsteps of Pieter Brueghel the Elder, who introduced this genre in the third quarter of the 16th century, winter settings like ours reached their zenith in the Dutch Golden Age, a veritable pictorial genre that was very attractive and sought after by art collectors of the time, as well as after almost four centuries, by Flemish painting enthusiasts of today.
Stylistically, the work can be attributed to the Flemish painter Nicolas 'Claes' Molenaer (Haarlem c. 1630 - 1676), given the perfect consonance of the period, style and composition with his creations, based on an evocative landscape, with wooded views, forests and valleys, paths, waterways with villages, animated by lively figures inserted in episodes of everyday life and drawn with a quick and fluid touch.
The painting is in excellent condition.

- De Wit Flowers Still life Paint Oil on canvas 18th Century Flemish Cupids ArtLocated in Riva del Garda, ITJacob De Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754) attributable/ workshop Pair of Cupids with Garland of Flowers Oil on canvas 91 x 103 cm. - Framed 104 x 115 cm. Provenance: Christie's (London, Old master Painting 12.12.1996) lot 82 This magnificent composition depicts two cupids holding a garland of flowers, placed on a fine architecture with bas-reliefs and masks, presumably the top of a fountain. One of the two cupids sympathetically holds a part of it with his hands, while his head turns towards the viewer; the second cupid, on the other hand, must have clumsily broken the thread holding its end, and is sitting sullenly with a torch and a tear streaking his chubby cheek. The work, given its stylistic features and compositional taste, can be attributed to the Flemish artist Jacob de Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754), or to an artist from his workshop, with his typical triumphal and opulent style, which reveals clear influences from Rubens and Van Dijck, but also from Gerard de Lairesse...Category
