Early 20th-Century Dutch School

Canal View With Cottage & Bridge

This vivid 20th-century Dutch School oil painting depicts a canalside view in the low countries.

Moored alongside two rustic dwellings, a brightly-coloured river barge rests. Beyond it, the spire of a distant church. With impressionistic daubs, each element of this eclectic canal is rendered with spirit.

Perhaps the artist is sitting upon their own barge, painting quickly to capture the fleeting effects of the Summer sun.

Signed illegibly in the lower right and held within a 20th-century Rococo revival frame.
