19th-Century Danish School, Idyllic Landscape With Farm, Oil Painting

c. 1880

About the Item

This charming late 19th-century Danish oil painting depicts a picturesque rural view with a farm, wandering shepherd and trees. Akin to a classical vision of pastoral bliss, this majestic landscape celebrates the sublimity of the natural world. Inspired by the Danish Golden Age painters, such as the eminent P. C. Skovgaard (1817-1875), the artist is seeking to capture a beautified vignette of their homeland. It’s finely rendered, with the trees a particular success. And if you look closely, you’ll see numerous figures working the land. Held within a gilt frame.

  • Daniel Sherrin, Heath Landscape With Sunset
    By Daniel Sherrin
    Located in Cheltenham, GB
    This early 20th-century autumnal oil painting by British artist Daniel Sherrin (1869-1940) depicts a rugged heath landscape under the glow of a setting sun. Sherrin was an accomplished painter of landscapes and maritime subjects. He spent the majority of his life in Seasalter, near Whitstable in Kent, where he became a local celebrity of repute. His father, John Sherrin RI RWS (1819-1896), was a painter of delicate still lifes in watercolour and trained by the distinguished William Henry Hunt (1790-1864). However, it’s unlikely that he provided any early tuition for his son as he actively dissuaded the young lad from entering the profession. As such, Sherrin was instead apprenticed to Peter Moore...
