Jacob Maris DUTCH: 1837-1899
HOLLAND LANDSCAPE
Height, 8½ inches; length, 14 inches
A rolling tract of rough land extends away to the horizon, where the sky line is formed by bare hilltops, broken here and there by the branches of leafless trees which grow along a muddy road winding from the right foreground around to the left. A cart drawn by a white horse, accompanied by a peasant, approaches along the road. Large masses of sunlit vapor nearly cover the blue of the sky.
Signed at the lower left, J. Maris.
Collection of the late George I. Seney, New York, 1894.
