Oil on parquet panel, 17th century Dutch school attributed to the entourage of Meinder HOBBEMA (1638-1709) [by the expert René Millet - Paris] - Landscape with a mill - Palisander, ebony and pewter veneer frame - Split panel, some missing material - Dimensions : 69 x 93 cm - Meinder HOBBEMA is one of the greatest Dutch landscape painters, pupil and friend of Jacob van Ruisdael. Having become friends, the two men traveled together on numerous occasions to the eastern regions of the United Provinces (Benelux) to observe the landscapes. He also stayed alone in various places in Holland, especially in the east of the country. The subjects he treated (picturesque sites, mills and woods) were taken from the provinces of Drenthe and Gelderland. According to Adolphe SIRET's dictionary (1924), "he was at least equal to the famous J. Ruysdael, except for the richness of invention and the poetry of taste. He combined relief and beauty of color with vigor and an inimitable naturalness. The backgrounds of his landscapes are large, his clouds transparent, his half-tones full of harmony; the meeting of these admirable qualities produces a magical whole". Considered today as one of the greatest Dutch landscape painters, Hobbema had little success during his lifetime and his name only appears for the first time in Johan van Gool's dictionary published in 1751 without any other precision than Hobbema "painted landscapes". Everything changed in the second half of the 18th century and in the following century his works were already in great demand.
