H.J. Weissenbruch, 1824 - 1903

Vaart met molens Oil on canvas, 45 x 67 cm.
Signed with stamp bottom right: Atelier Weissenbruch
Painted about 1885

The painting is in the great style of the artist and probably kept in his atelier as a nice example for his coming production. The typical view on a canal with a slow moving boat in the haze of the evening gives a nice example of the great landscape painting of this highly admired painter.
