Description: | Signed: yes Description: Edmond de Schamphaleer (1824-99) was born in Brussels. He studied painting in Antwerp and Munich before settling in his native city. He worked as a landscape painter, specialising in views around the major cities of the Netherlands, such as Dordrecht, Amsterdam and Rotterdam. He also produced views of agricultural landscape, such as cattle grazing or people collecting the harvest. The Huddersfield painting combines these two interests. Other English collectors were interested in his work; a painting bequeathed by Joshua Dixon to Bethnal Green Museum in 1886, is now in the Victoria and Albert Museum. | Subjects: | landscape; figure; animal (cows); place (Dordrecht) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Schampheleer, Edmond de (Belgian painter 1824-1899) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8655... | Go to resource |
