Lot description

Firewood Collecting Woman Signed and dated 1888 lower right Oil on panel, 54.1 x 38.4 cm Provenance: Private collection, Germany Note: Claas Hendrik Meiners is considered one of the earliest painters of the Oosterbeek School. Trained by B.C. Koekkoek, he regularly travelled to the southern Veluwezoom from 1853 onwards. There, a group of painters had gathered who made the landscape of Wolfeze and Oosterbeek the subject of their paintings. In contrast to the vast landscapes of the Romantic painters, Meiners opted for the intimate atmosphere of the forest, where the impression of the atmosphere and mood was pivotal. Presumably this work reveals the wooded area in the vicinity of Oosterbeek. Faults or imperfections are not recorded in the lot description. We encourage you to inspect the lots during our viewing days. Condition reports are available upon request.
