With description on the back. The work was donated by AH Koning in 1914 to the daughter of the van Daalen family in Bennekom.

Arnold ("Nol") Koning was born into a Groningen patrician family of lawyers and administrators. After completing the gymnasium in Winschoten, he left for Amsterdam to study at the State Academy of Art.
In 1886 he made his debut by participating in an exhibition in Pictura (Groningen). The same year he moved to The Hague for courses at the Royal Academy of Art. In 1887 he left for Paris for nine months. There he met Theo van Gogh, art dealer for Goupil & Cie, and his older brother Vincent. After Vincent left Paris for the South in the spring of 1888, Arnold was given a place in Theo's apartment on the Rue Lepic. Letters of the friendship have been handed down.

Back in the Netherlands, Arnold went back to live in The Hague and traveled through the Netherlands to paint. With his nine years younger brother Edzard Willem Koning, who also came to the Hofstad to study at the Hague Academy, he was part of the painting culture in The Hague. In 1893 Arnold married and moved to Rijswijk. Two children were born of the marriage. In 1897 the family moved to Ede. In 1909 a divorce followed and Arnold left for Voorthuizen. He had a house built in Voorthuizen, remarried and combined painting with a simple life as a small farmer. In the winter of 1944-45 Arnold fell down the basement stairs at home and died.

Koning was a member of Arti et Amicitiae, Pulchri Studio, the Haagse Kunstkring and Pictura Veluvensis.

When Arnold Hendrik Koning went to study at the Rijksacademie in 1880, the Dutch impressionism of the Hague School was the leading style. Arnold has mastered that style and has remained faithful to it throughout his working life. Already in Paris, and later through the work of colleagues and in the artists' associations, he must have seen all the successive innovations around the turn of the century, but they went beyond his style.

Arnold painted the traditional Dutch landscape of fishermen and farmers. He used a loose, flowing style, suggesting the minor visual elements with a single stroke of paint. This style was his reliable vehicle to strike the mood of the landscape.

Arnold loved nature. The urbanization around The Hague drove Arnold to the untouched Veluwe. But the innovation caught up with him. The modernization of the Netherlands with the increase in scale in agriculture and the closure of the Zuiderzee transformed the landscape of farmers and fishermen. For Arnold, that change felt like destruction. From 1920 he retires to Voorthuizen. He has his garden and his animals. The chicken coop in the back of the garden is going to dominate his small paintings.

Only a limited number of landscapes in paintings by Koning can be located. Arnold did not consider it important to date and place an indication of his work. If titles are already known, then a painting is called: On the edge of a town or Dorpsstraat in Overijssel. He was concerned with the atmosphere in the cultural landscape. (Source: Wikipedia)
