A late 19th century original oil on canvas Farmyard scene
|
Dateline: Late 19th Century |
Item# 36975 |
A beautifully painted late 19th century original oil on canvas Farmyard scene signed by Belgian painter G L Van Leemputten. Measures 56 x 40 cms.
Born in Werchter, Cornelius van Leemputten is predominantly known for his landscapes with sheep, similar to the style of Charles Jacque. He began his painting career without formal training. He was well known for his barnyard subjects. Leemputten eventually became a pupil of the Academy of Antwerp, though his style remained primarily self-taught.
Van Leemputten participated across several international exhibitions and received gold medals in Ghent in 1883, Edinburgh in 1886, Port Adelaide in 1887 and in Berlin in 1896. In 1895, he received the Knight of the Order of Leopold (Belgium).
Partially as a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, the depiction of farm animals and pastoral scenes gained popularity in the nineteenth century. The simple, rural subjects perhaps evoked nostalgia in the richer city populations of the time. The seventeenth-century artist Paulus Potter was an influence for many of the artists of this period, including van Leemputten.
A label on the back gives his birth and death dates slightly different, 1842-1894
Condition: Very Good.
Dimensions: Measures 56 x 40 cms
