EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Ubbergen Castle, painted by Aelbert Cuyp in 1655. The castle, located in Gelderland Province, Netherlands, stands tall and proud amidst a serene landscape. With its intricate architecture and imposing turrets, it exudes an air of grandeur. However, this painting holds a tragic history. In 1582, the castle was set ablaze by angry citizens and eventually demolished entirely in 1742. Despite its ruinous state depicted here, the beauty of Ubbergen Castle still shines through. The artist's skillful use of oil on panel brings out the subtle details of the scene - from the reflection of the castle on the calm waters of a nearby lake to the play of light on its weathered walls. This Dutch masterpiece captures both tranquility and melancholy simultaneously. Displayed at London's National Gallery for all to admire, this artwork transports viewers back to a time long gone but not forgotten. It serves as a reminder that even in ruins, there is still beauty to be found. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this piece for us to appreciate today. As we gaze upon this print, let us marvel at Cuyp's talent and reflect upon the fleeting nature of human creations against nature's enduring presence
