EDITORS COMMENTS
Matthijs Maris's enchanting oil on paper painting, "Boat with a Pollard Willow," transports us to the idyllic countryside of the Netherlands in the 19th century. The scene unfolds beneath a shaded meadow, where a solitary figure leans over the oars of a small rowboat, gliding effortlessly through the calm, reflective water. The pollard willow tree, with its gnarled trunk and lush green foliage, stands proudly in the foreground, its branches providing a canopy of shade for the peaceful scene. Maris, a prominent figure of the Hague School, masterfully captures the essence of the Dutch rural landscape, with its lush greenery, gentle waterways, and the play of light and shadow. The use of oil on paper adds a unique texture and depth to the painting, enhancing the sense of tranquility and serenity. The painting invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the beauty of the passing moment. The pollard willow, a common sight in the Dutch countryside, adds a sense of heritage and tradition to the scene, making it a beloved and enduring icon of Dutch art. This painting, created by Matthijs Maris in 1863, is now part of the permanent collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to the enduring legacy of Dutch art and its connection to the natural world.
