EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century, oil on wood painting, titled "Calm Water with Trees," showcases the serene beauty of a riverbank landscape. The painting, of unknown origin, is believed to date back to the 16th century, possibly from Flanders, Belgium or Italy. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush, green trees, their branches reaching out to frame the calm water surface below. A man, dressed in period attire, is seen standing at the water's edge, casting a line into the still waters. Behind him, other figures can be seen engaged in angling, adding to the bustling activity on the riverbank. The painting is decorated with intricate gilding, adding a touch of elegance and grandeur to the piece. The oval shaped canvas, with its golden frame, is a common feature of European portraits and landscapes from this period. The use of oil paint allows for a rich and vibrant color palette, bringing the tranquil scene to life. This painting is a testament to the heritage and artistry of the 17th century, and is now on display at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden. The peaceful vista invites the viewer to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the pastime of fishing, transporting us back in time to a simpler era.
