Description
Eugène Joseph Verboeckhoven,
Belgian 1798-1881-
Sheep by a gate;
oil on panel, signed and dated 'Eugène Verboeckhoven / 1860' (lower left), 14 x 20 cm.
Note: Verboeckhoven studied under his father, the sculptor Barthelemy Verboeckhoven. The artist was particularly celebrated for his landscapes and animal paintings, and the present work exhibits many of the key tendencies of his working method, such as, for example, his placement of the sheep at centre-stage in an otherwise empty landscape, whilst also devoting considerable attention to the vast expanse of sky above. This approach lends the work a sense of quiet grandeur which contrasts with the apparent simplicity of its subject.
