Other Images:
Watercolors, 153 x 198 and 140 x 175 mm. Fine, finished, decorative watercolors on wove paper with framing lines, each signed with the monogram IA. Landscape was a long and rich tradition among artists in the Netherlands and has possibly not even yet exhausted itself. The true glory years were in the seventeenth century and in the century that followed a good deal of the spontaneous character and the excitement of seeing gave way to a more meticulous finish and a decorative or clearly topographical character. This pair of watercolors is a sample, braving no new horizons but supplying comfortable country scenes, perhaps for people who no longer dwelt in the country. Sold as a pair.
