"The Farewell" - Late 19th-Century Antique Landscape Painting, Framed
C. 1895

About the Item

A stunning 19th-century genre scene, in fine condition, by a member of the Royal Academy who actually had one of his paintings sell to Napoleon III, so as a collector you'd be in good company. It's of a young lady bidding goodbye to a soldier who is presumably going off to war. He holds the reigns of a second horse likely intended for a companion. A touching and beautifully painted scene - deft touches everywhere, on the people, horses and vegetation. Verschuur is known for his paintings of or containing horses, and his sure hand with their depiction shows very well here. Signed lower left, guaranteed authentic. The remarkable heavy antique gilded plaster and wood frame, in superb condition, comes with it. Brass nameplate affixed. Measures 30.5" x 35" framed; 19" x 24" unframed. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee of satisfaction. Here is some biographical information about the artist: "Wouterus Verschuur (11 June 1812 - 4 July 1874) was a Dutch painter of animal subjects - mainly horses - and of landscapes. He is one of the later representatives of Romanticism* in Dutch art. He was born to an Amsterdam jeweler, and received his training from the landscape and cattle painters Pieter Gerardus van Os and Cornelis Steffelaar. As part of this education Verschuur had to copy works by the 17th century painter Philips Wouwerman. Like Wouwerman, Verschuur's subjects consist mostly of stable scenes, landscapes with horses and coastal landscapes. Showing talent from an early age, at 15 Verschuur had a painting exhibited at the "Exhibition of Living Masters" at Amsterdam in 1828. In 1832 and 1833 he won the gold medal at the annual exhibition at Felix Meritis. In 1833 he was appointed a member of the Royal Academy in Amsterdam. In 1839 he joined the artists' society, Arti et Amicitiae. His reputation was also considerable abroad. He was often featured in the annual exhibitions which travelled the large European cities at that time. In 1855 Napoleon III purchased one of his paintings at the Exposition Universelle* in Paris. The popularity of his paintings provided him with sufficient funds to travel widely. He made frequent trips to Gelderland and Brabant and abroad to Switzerland and Germany. In 1874, on one of his trips to Gelderland, he died on July 4 in the town of Vorden. He left behind an oeuvre of about four hundred paintings and over two thousand drawings. Amongst his students were his son, Wouterus Verschuur Jr. and Anton Mauve." Source: "Wouterus Verschuur", Wikipedia
