EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a charming scene in a courtyard during the early 1660s. Painted by Ludolf de Jongh, this oil on canvas artwork measures 67.3x82.2 cm and is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA. The Dutch Golden Age comes to life in this baroque masterpiece as it showcases various elements that define the era. A wealthy family's courtyard serves as the backdrop, adorned with exquisite tiling and an elegant gate. The open doorway reveals glimpses of domestic life unfolding within. A child can be seen playing joyfully with two dogs, adding a touch of innocence and liveliness to the composition. Meanwhile, a servant or maid attends to her duties nearby, highlighting the social dynamics prevalent during this time period. Jongh's attention to detail is evident throughout the painting - from the intricate architectural features to the play of light and shadow on each surface. This meticulousness brings depth and realism to every element portrayed. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece of art captured by Bridgeman Images, immerse yourself in its rich historical context and appreciate how it encapsulates both everyday life and opulence synonymous with Dutch society during their golden age.
