Per WickenbergDutch Winter Landscape at Sunset, 18421842
1842
About the Item
This remarkable painting by Swedish artist Per Wickenberg captures a serene Dutch winter scene at sunset, showcasing his mastery of atmospheric light and dramatic composition. Created in 1842, the same year Wickenberg became a member of the Swedish Royal Academy of Arts and was awarded both the Order of Vasa and the Legion of Honor, this work reflects the artist's profound talent and international acclaim.
The soft glow of the setting sun bathes the landscape in warm hues, contrasting with the cool, muted tones of winter. A rustic windmill stands tall, silhouetted against a fiery sky, while a tranquil river mirrors the fading light. The scene is animated by figures and natural details that evoke a sense of quiet rural life.
Wickenberg’s ability to blend naturalism with a touch of romanticism is evident in this painting, which draws inspiration from his artistic journeys to Belgium and the Netherlands. His brief but illustrious career brought him significant recognition across Europe, including gold medals at the Paris Salon and representation in prestigious collections such as the Louvre and Nationalmuseum in Stockholm.
This artwork serves as a testament to Wickenberg's enduring legacy, despite his untimely death at the age of 34.

Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church, 1891
Located in Stockholm, SE
"Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church" is a captivating work by Swedish artist Albert Larsson, painted in 1891 when Larsson was 22 years old. The painting captures a landscape steeped in the quietude of dusk, with a sky ablaze in hues of red and orange, signalling the end of the day. The silhouettes of trees are rendered with astonishing detail against the twilight sky, showcasing Larsson's early mastery of light and shadow.
Dominating the pastoral scene is a traditional windmill, its blades stilled against the sky, alongside the spire of a church that pierces the horizon. These structures, together with the meticulously painted trees, are testaments to the human presence within the natural world, suggesting a harmony between the two.
A notable feature is the small water-filled furrow in the field, which catches the fading light of the sky, creating a pathway of reflection leading the eye through the composition. This detail highlights Larsson's skill in using light to draw attention to elements within his paintings.
Albert Larsson, born on November 4, 1869, in Malmö and passing on August 31, 1952, in Lund, was an artist deeply influenced by his education in Copenhagen at the Art Academy and later at Peder Severin Krøyer...
