Title
The Anglers
Description
Van Ostade focused on depicting heartwarming portrayals of Dutch peasants participating in social activities within village squares, inns or barns. This artwork faithfully reproduces Ostade's only piece where the landscape takes precedence over the characters. The etching skillfully conveys the tranquillity of a misty summer day through nuanced atmospheric effects. The scene exudes a reflective atmosphere of leisurely idleness, as seen in the elderly, stooped man leisurely trailing his fishing line in a shallow stream and the young boy patiently holding a basket in anticipation of elusive fish.
