The painting on offer shows a very beautifully rendered representation of horses in a stable with the farmer, situated in the background. The painting is attributed to Wouterus Verschuur (Amsterdam 1812 - 1874, Vorden) he was a Dutch painter and mainly depicted horses. Verschuur also made lithographs. Verschuur worked in the studio of Pieter Caspar Christ, Cornelis Jan Bolt and Cornelis Springer. He taught Anton Mauve and also his son Wouter Verschuur jr. He was a member of the Royal Academy and Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam.
The painting comes from a private art collection with high-quality works of art via Art Dumay.
The painting is made on canvas and then reinforced by attaching a mahogany panel. The beautifully chosen lighting in the stable interior is striking.
Wouterus Verschuur (Amsterdam, 11 June 1812 – Vorden, 4 July 1874) was a Dutch painter, lithographer and graphic artist. Wouter Verschuur was a pupil of the landscape and animal painters Pieter Gerardus van Os and Cornelis Steffelaar. In 1831 and 1832 he won the Felix Meritis Prize. In 1833 he became a member of the Royal Academy in Amsterdam and in 1839 of Arti et Amicitiae in the same city. Between 1842 and 1868 he lived and worked in The Hague, Doorn (1842), Haarlem (1858-1868) and Amsterdam (1846-1857 and 1869-1874). In 1867 he lived in Brussels. He is best known for his masterful horse paintings. The 17th-century horse painter Philips Wouwerman was a source of inspiration for this. He gained fame and reputation with such paintings from 1840 onwards. He was a master in the true-to-life depiction of horses, both in terms of breed and posture. The horse (preferably white), but sometimes also dogs, is always placed very centrally in the image, placed in a beam of light. In this way he connects with the chiaroscuro tradition. He also attracted attention abroad. In 1855 Napoleon III bought one of his entries at the World Exhibition in Paris. He reached the height of his fame in 1860. He is therefore considered to belong to the last generation of Dutch Romantic animal painters. Verschuur sometimes worked together with the landscape painter Cornelis Springer.[1] In addition to paintings, he also made drawings, often with horses as the subject. Pupils of Verschuur include his son Wouterus Verschuur jr. and Anton Mauve. Although Mauve worked in Verschuur's studio for only a few months in 1858, he adopted his style in painting draft horses and oxen. Verschuur's work can be found in the Amsterdam Historical Museum and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam, the Stedelijk Museum Zutphen in Zutphen and the John Selbach Museum in Maaseik.
