A Barn on the Bank of a Stream in Gelderland — Wouter Johannes van Troostwijk

Wouter Johannes van Troostwijk. Painted c. 1805 - c. 1810.

Van Troostwijk breathed new life into Dutch landscape painting. In his pictures he did not compose an ideal vision of nature, nor did he refer back to monumental 17th-century landscapes. Instead, he lovingly rendered familiar everyday motifs, such as this bleaching field at a farm in Gelderland. The bright light and lush vegetation in this scene make it a truly Dutch landscape.

From the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Currently on display in Romanticism in the Netherlands, Main building, 19th Century.
