EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting by Karel Slabbaert, titled "Galgewater in Leiden with ice entertainment, 1639-1654," offers a glimpse into the past of Leiden, South Holland, Netherlands. The Galgewater is a name given to both a canal and a street, derived from the gallows (galge in Dutch) that once stood nearby. The scene depicts a bustling winter day on the Galgewater, with people of all ages enjoying the icy weather. Horses and sledges are seen transporting goods and people across the frozen canal, while ice skaters glide effortlessly on the thick ice. The bridge in the background, with its drawbridge raised, adds to the sense of activity and movement. The painting is filled with vibrant colors and contrasts, from the dark shadows cast by the bridge and the manger on the right, to the bright whites of the ice and the colorful coats of the horses and people. The use of pencil and watercolor paint adds to the texture and depth of the image, making it a true work of art. Despite the cold and darkness, there is a sense of joy and leisure in the painting, with people enjoying the seasonal pastime of ice skating and the simple pleasure of being outdoors. The Galgewater, with its rich history and lively atmosphere, is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Leiden and the Netherlands as a whole. This beautiful watercolor painting, created by Karel Slabbaert between 1639 and 1654, is a valuable addition to any collection of Dutch heritage art and a reminder of the past joys and traditions of the Low Countries.
