A Windmill on a Polder Waterway, Known as ‘In the Month of July’ — Paul Joseph Constantin Gabriël
Paul Joseph Constantin Gabriël. Painted c. 1889.
‘Our country is saturated with colour. ... I repeat, our country is not grey, not even in grey weather, nor are the dunes grey’, wrote Constant Gabriël in a letter. Unlike many Hague School painters, he actually enjoyed depicting a beautiful summer day. There are even two of them in this painting: the image of the grass, sky and mill, and their reflection in the water.
