Jan van de Velde II. - Winter Landscape with Ice Skaters

zoom
In this scene, Jan van de Velde came very close to the plain, linear manner of his contemporaries Esaias van de Velde and especially Willem Buytewech, which is clearly discernible in the simplified, expressive treatment of the trees. The scene is enlivened by the combination of the landscape with genre motifs of ice skaters - a man attaching skates to the lady’s feet and figures in discussion to the right, imbuing it with the intimacy of everyday life.
