River landscape, studio of Jan Brueghel the Younger 17th century Antwerp school

About the Item

River landscape Studio of Jan Brueghel the Younger (1601-1678) 17th century Antwerp school Oil on copper: h. 7.48 in, w. 10.43 in Ebonized wood and moulded frame Framed: h. 18.4 in, w. 20.87 in. This precious painting illustrates the view of a small village crossed by a canal with boats and canoes in the foreground. The slender trees punctuate this picturesque setting. The activity of the villagers is harmoniously highlighted against this peaceful background. The separation between the river and the sky seems to disappear in the misty distance thanks to the soft light. An almost idyllic landscape that invites contemplation and daydreaming. Painted on copper, the smooth support allows to enrich the composition with precise and realistic details. Color plays a fundamental role in the balance of this work, a palette of warm tones to depict the village contrasts with the vibrant green trees against a backdrop of icy blue sky, while the water of the river is reflected in the tones blues and greens. This color combination creates a peaceful atmosphere magnified by a golden sky on the left, transporting the viewer to a natural and serene environment. The attention paid to details, the finesse of the touch, the presence of water are all elements which direct us towards a student of Jan Breughel the Younger. The genre of river landscape established by Jan Breughel the Elder and perpetuated by his son uses water as the main compositional element, running through the work and creating the interaction between nature and human activity.

  • Antique English 19th century marine scene
    By William Anderson
    Located in Woodbury, CT
    Outstanding English late 18th / early 19th century marine scene by one of Britain's best known and sought after painters. William (or Wiliam) Anderson (1757 – 27 May 1837) was a Scottish artist specializing in maritime and patriotic themes. He was well-regarded for his detailed and accurate portraits of ships under sail, exhibiting his works annually in London between 1787 and 1811 and then occasionally until 1834. Anderson influenced other artists, notably John Ward and others of the Hull school. Anderson's early life is obscure, but he is known to have trained as a shipwright before moving to London to become a maritime painter when he was about 30. His training served him well as a painter, providing "a practical nautical knowledge" of his subjects. He earned a reputation for "accuracy and refinement of detail" and was admired for his bright, clear colours. He worked in both oils and watercolours. He based his style on that of well-known Dutch maritime...
