ID: #8082 | Dutch painters | People

The painting depicts a 17th-century scene with two figures on horseback, who are probably from high society, due to their rich clothes and attitudes. The man on the right is wearing a brown coat with lace sleeves and has long, wavy hair. The woman on the left wears a blue dress with a hat decorated with feathers. Behind them are two people on horseback and a group of dogs. A green landscape with a castle can be seen in the background.

The most famous of a family of painters and a pupil of his father, Aelbert Cuyp Jacobs (1620-1691) was Dutch landscape artist during the golden age of the 17th century. He is often likened to Claude Lorrain. Not much information about Cuyp’s life was preserved. From what we know, it is obvious that he became a deacon a year after he was married to Cornelia Bosman. But we know more about his artistic life. He was the most active and at the peak of his career in the years 1630 - 1650. His painting style was influenced by Josephszoon Jan van Goyen, yellow and light brown tones, noticeable in the painting < a href = Aelbert Cuyp-landscape-s-cattle-Ido-4237> Landscape with Cattle or Maas at Dordrecht. He was also inspired by his father, for whom he painted landscape backgrounds as he was a portraitist. Of course, Cyup signed his paintings but unfortunately only by name, so it is impossible to say when exactly they were created.
