Joris Abrahamsz van der Haagen
Heron Shoot in a Landscape
1615-1669
Oil on oak panel, signed 'JAH' lower left
Image size: 16 x 21 inches (41 x 53 cm)
Dutch ebonised frame
Provenance
At Heim, Paris, 1960s
In this landscape, a heron shoot is taking place. Amongst the figures, we see a wealthy couple in fine drapery observing a hunter lining up his shot on a newly startled heron. A retriever dog rushes towards the heron, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to return the quarry to the hunter. The couple’s entourage surrounds them, whilst farmers can be seen with their cattle in the background. However, this depiction of a heron shoot is only a minute aspect of this painting, which predominantly focuses on the stunning river landscape. In fact, this painting depicts many different aspects of natural scenery. The river is a prominent feature, with finely detailed lily pads and bulrushes littered along the banks of its silvery water. Van der Haagen’s skill becomes readily apparent with his skilful rendering of the reflections in the water of the trees in the small copse beside the river. Each leaf of each tree is painted in beautiful detail and with colours ranging from luscious greens to autumnal oranges. The third aspect of the landscape is the expansive sky; grey and overcast, with darker clouds in the foreground hinting at the possibility of rain. Van der Haagen’s artistic ability is undeniable; he has painted three incredibly different natural formations and merged them all into one beautiful artwork.Whilst the events of the hunt in the foreground provide an interesting narrative to the painting, the role of nature is what dominates within the artwork, almost serving as a reminder of the all consuming beauty and power of the natural world in comparison to the whims and pastimes of humanity.
Joris Abrahamsz van der Haagen
Joris Abrahamsz van der Haagen was born in Arnhem in 1615 and was taught how to paint by his father Abraham van der Haagen, who was also an artist. Joris’ career began in a studio in Arnhem, but he relocated to The Hague in 1639 upon the death of his father and eventually became an honorary citizen there.In The Hague, Joris aimed to capitalise on the patronage stemming from the courts situated there, and became a member of the Guild of Saint Luke in 1643. However, factions began to form in the Guild between craftspeople of different trades, promoting Joris to become a founding member of the Confrerie Pictura - a guild dedicated purely to visual artists.Joris died in the Hague in 1669, with two of his sons continuing his painterly legacy. He is known for his landscapes, such as the one depicted in this particular Duck Shooting scene, as well as topographical drawings of towns and cities in the Netherlands. Joris collaborated with the staffage artist Ludolf de Jongh for his figuration, as he never painted figures himself. Therefore, it is likely that the hunters in this painting were composed by de Jongh, creating a unique story to the production of this painting.

Johann Christian Kröner was the son of the decorative painter Johann Kröner (1788–1848) and his wife Clara Regina, née Meyer (1792–1862). Kröner attended high school in his hometown until 1852 and then worked for his brother, who had taken over the paternal painting business , as an apprentice.
He also sketched outdoors to capture nature. It was only from 1861 that he could continue to devote himself to art. He first went to Munich and the artist colony in Brannenburg , where he painted landscapes and got to know local painters, including Carl Irmer , Wilhelm Busch , Julius Rollmann and Louis Hugo Becker . In 1863 he went to Düsseldorf, where he met the landscape painter Louis Hugo Becker, moving in the milieu of the Düsseldorf School.
With his artist friends and paint box in hand, they worked from self-study and frequent trips to Upper Bavaria , Thuringia and particularly Westphalia. Among his circle of friends in Düsseldorf were Gustav Süs, Karl Bertling, Eduard Geselschap, Abert Baur, Eugen Dücker...

Wooded Figurative River Landscape - Dutch 17thC Golden Age art oil painting
Located in London, GB
This superb 17th century Dutch Golden Age oil painting has been more recently reattributed to Abraham Begeyn by Dr Marijke C. de Kinkelder formerly of the RKD - Netherlands Institute for Art History. Painted circa 1640 it is an Italianate wooded river landscape with drovers and their herd crossing a river with a watchtower beyond. Begeyn was one of the many 17th-century Dutch and Flemish painters to embrace the Italianate style, populating their decidedly non-Dutch, mountainous landscapes with rustic travellers and picturesque ruins bathed in warm, Mediterranean light. It has Begeyn's characteristic brightly lit cattle and grouping of figures, similar to a comparable painting in the Lichtenstein Princely Collections. The brushwork and details are superb. One can see the influence of his teacher Nicholaes Berchem (1620-1683) and the typical golden glow of the Golden Age painters. This is a stunning 17th century Golden Age oil painting and an excellent example of Begeyn's work.
Provenance: With Koetser Gallery, Zurich. Private Collection (Rhine region). Anon. sale, Dorotheum, Vienna, 22 June 2010, lot 357, as by Jacob de Heusch (€18,600).
Anon. sale, Christie's South Kensington,18 November 2015, lot 432, as 'Follower of Nicolaes Berchem'; where purchased by the present owner.
Note: Begeyn was one of the many 17th-century Dutch and Flemish painters to embrace the Italianate style, populating their decidedly non-Dutch, mountainous landscapes with rustic travellers and picturesque ruins bathed in warm, Mediterranean light.
He is thought to have studied under Nicolaes Berchem (1620-1683), a pioneer of this genre of landscape painting, and travelled extensively to Italy, London and later to Germany in 1688, where he lived out his days as court painter to Frederick III, Elector of Brandenburg (later Frederick I, King of Prussia).
The present work was previously thought to be the work of Jacob de Heusch (1656-1701), but has been more recently reattributed to Abraham Begeyn by Dr Marijke C. de Kinkelder formerly of the RKD - Netherlands Institute for Art History.
A comparable scene, which also includes Begeyn's characteristic brightly lit cattle and a similar figure group, was sold at Christie's Amsterdam, 18 November 2015, lot 110. Another can be found in the Liechtenstein Princely Collections (no.GE 290).
Condition. Oil on canvas, image size 21 inches by 18 inches and in good condition.
Frame. Housed in a beautiful gilt frame, 28 inches by 25 inches and in good condition.
Abraham Begeyn (c. 1637 Leiden - 11 June 1697 Berlin), was a Dutch Golden Age painter. Begeyn was born in Leiden. Though perhaps known mostly for his Italianate landscapes and cattle in the manner of Nicolaes Pietersz Berchem, Begyn was a highly skilled painter active in many genres, who travelled widely. According to the RKD, Begeyn's earliest known work is from 1653, though he was first accepted into the Guild of St. Luke in Leiden in 1655. He stopped paying dues in 1667, because he set off for a trip to Italy. He is registered in Rome and Naples from 1659–1660. In the rampjaar or disaster year, of 1672, he is registered in Amsterdam, and after that he lived in London, where he painted at Ham House, Surrey, together with Willem van de Velde the Younger (1633–1707) and Dirck van Bergen...
