Van der Aalst Fine Art

Sobre la obra de arte
This impressionistic painting by Herman Moerkerk (1879-1949) depicts the old church tower viewed from the 'Landpoortstraat' in Woudrichem also known as ´Workum´. The robust village houses are in nice contrast to the stubby tower of the St. Martinus Church, standing in the background.
The sleek tower and the houses both show their sunny and shady sides. The tower appears to lean slightly backwards due to its sloping edge and position. Striking are the Dutch houses with their typical undulating roof structures.

The colors in this painting are warm, varied and lifelike. The lines and shapes of the church and houses are powerful and intimate at the same time. The opening at the gate plays with the imagination to what can be seen, but what is actually there remains invisible and mysterious.

The painting is unsigned and dates from around 1920. It's in very good condition.
The original canvas is relined and supported by a new one.
