Jonannes Martinus Vrolyk DUTCH: 1846-1894
LANDSCAPE AND CATTLE
Height, 21½ inches; length, 34 inches
In a shallow pool which extends diagonally across the foreground to the left three spotted cows stand knee deep, two of them drinking, and beyond, scattered over a broad, level meadow, bounded in the distance on the right by a large coppice, are other cattle, attended by a single peasant. The sky is covered by luminous clouds, and the warm haze of summer extends over the distant landscape.
Signed at the lower right, Jan Vrolyk ft., ’89.
