À propos du tableau
Wouterus Verschuur (1812-1874) was born in Amsterdam and trained there by the landscape and cattle painters Pieter Gerardus van Os (1776-1839) and Cornelis Steffelaar (1797-1861). In 1833, he became member of the Akademie voor Beeldende Kunsten and of the Koninklijk Nederlands Instituut in Amsterdam, and joined the artists' society Arti et Amicitiae in 1839. He worked in The Hague from 1846 and 1857 and 1869 to 1874, residing also in The Hague, Doorn (1842), Brussels (1867) and Haarlem (1858-68).
This painting is a typical example of Wouterus Verschuur's oeuvre. He specialised in stable interiors and landscape painting in a style reminiscent of the 17th century art. Animals, especially horses and cattle, were favoured by the 19th century artists as they were considered an example of the national pride.
