Description: | Van der Heyden travelled widely in the southern Netherlands and Germany but he was mainly active in Amsterdam. He specialised in townscapes in which he combined architectural precision with rich painterly handling. Van der Heyden was famous for his close attention to detail in his townscapes but his landscapes were considered less successful. This painting is rare in Van der Heyden's oeuvre in that it is exclusively landscape. | Subjects: | landscape | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Heyden, Jan van der (Dutch painter, 1637-1712) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8384... | Go to resource |
