"Romantic landscape by a Dutch artist: water, shepherds, and cows"

(1777 Tilburg – 1847 Berlicum) Dutch river landscape with a shepherd and cows at a watering place. A romantic, atmospheric landscape by the versatile Dutch artist, son of the painter Nicolaas Frederik Knip. In 1801, Knip moved to Paris, and at the end of 1809 he went to Rome, where he stayed until 1812 and made study trips throughout Italy. In 1813, he returned to the Netherlands, initially settling in 's-Hertogenbosch; later he worked in Amsterdam (1817–1823), Nijmegen (1820/21), Paris (1823–1827), and The Hague (1827–1836). In 1832, Knip settled down. A comparable painting in subject and composition is a landscape in the Netherlands Collection, Amsterdam (Inv. No. NK 1956). Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1830 (?). 66 cm x 88 cm. In a frame.
