About the Item

This oil painting is one of Jan Jacob Spohler’s finest examples and is signed and dated (1860). He was born in Nederhorst den Berg, Amsterdam on 7 November 1811 and was an expert and winter landscapes and summer landscapes. Oil on canvas 22¾ x 31 ½ inches Framed size 30¾ x 39 ½ inches JJ Spohler went on to study art under Jan Willem Pieneman at the Amsterdam Academy and in 1845 became a member of the Koninklijke Academie in Amsterdam. Spohler specialized in painting town scenes and Dutch Winter and Summer landscapes. He managed to capture the atmosphere of his subjects and small groups of figures are often found in his paintings, which give a delightful insight into the working life of the people. There is usually a great sense of interaction between the figures in his paintings. His winter scene paintings with the sledges, toboggans and figures skating on a frozen canal, always had windmills in the background. Spohler travelled extensively throughout Holland during his working life and lived in Amsterdam, Haarlem, Brussels, The Hague, Leiden and Rotterdam; and finally returned to settle in Amsterdam in 1861. Spohler's work sold well during his lifetime and he often competed for commissions with other contemporaries such as F.M. Kruseman (1816-1882) and Charles Leickert (1816-1907). Spohler had two sons who both became artists, Jacob Jan Coenraad Spohler, who was very much influenced by his father, in his style and subject matter and his other son, Johannes Franciscus Spohler painted Dutch townscape scenes. Although both sons were accomplished painters, neither of them had the deftness of touch of their fathers work. Spohler died on 15 June 1866 in Amsterdam, however according Benezit the year of death was 1879. Works in Museums: Teylers Museum, Haarlem; Broederpoort; Kampen.
