Hendrick van LIMBORCH
18th Century Galanti Scenes Van Limborch Rest Hunting Oil on Canvas Green Red

About the Item

Pair of oval paintings measuring 66 x 89 cm without frame and 90 x 115 cm with coeval frame depicting two gallant moments during a rest from hunting by painter Hendrik Van Limborch ( The Hague 1681 - 1759 ). Beautiful color impact with these light, warm tones that go blending with the peace and tranquility of the rural world. The main characteristics of Van Limborch's painting are the airy breadth of panoramas and the sense of diffuse brightness where episodes have no precise meaning. They are almost always country pastimes so dear to the 17th century, with the usual characters from the repertoire of the painters of whimsy and views: beggars, Orientals, abbots contemplating ancient tombstones or hunters seeking rest or at work all of course always immersed in nature's unchallenged dominance and symbol of unity between man and life. The landscape motif even in the most imaginative accents always has in our painter a real cue and therefore a real and human dimension; in these paintings we can see this green so bright and alive that it tries to explain to us how much the nature that is around us and in which we lose ourselves is beautiful, strong, vigorous but at the same time gentle and docile. Beautiful to note how the two pairs of people are on the one hand busy in their thoughts but at the same time seem lost in the serenity and tranquility of this old-time landscape. Typical is his construction of the pictorial fabric, and particular is the atmospheric rendering played with the shadowy areas created by the scenic backdrops of trees and clouds. As is the case in this painting, the perfect composition of the landscape became the main object of his work; The tree-lined patches executed with free and quick brushstrokes, the warm burnished colors, the atmospheric rendering of the rising cloud mounds, all in a well-balanced composition of his landscapes with an Arcadian pastoral flavor, constitute the most significant elements of his painting, all of which are also well represented in our canvas. The paintings and art objects published here are my exclusive property and consequently are always available to be viewed in person, by appointment, at my exhibition venues located in San Remo and Brescia.
