Boy Leaning over a Lower Door, 1763, published 1765
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite etching and roulette print created by the talented Dutch artist Cornelis Ploos van Amstel. This artwork captures the essence of 18th-century life in the Low Countries with its meticulous attention to detail. In this charming scene, a young boy leans over a lower door, his curiosity piqued by what lies beyond. Dressed in traditional clothing of the era, his vibrant attire adds a splash of color to the composition. The artist's masterful use of hand coloring with red chalk further enhances the overall appeal. Ploos van Amstel's skillful technique brings depth and texture to every element within the frame - from the intricately designed door to the folds in the boy's clothes. The play between light and shadow creates an atmosphere that transports viewers back in time. This remarkable piece not only showcases Ploos van Amstel's artistic prowess but also serves as a window into Dutch heritage during this period. It offers us a glimpse into everyday life and invites contemplation on themes such as childhood innocence and exploration. Displayed at National Gallery of Art Washington, this print stands as a testament to Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn's influence on Ploos van Amstel’s work – evident through its rich tones and attention to human expression. "Boy Leaning over a Lower Door" is undoubtedly an invaluable addition to any art collection or gallery space, offering viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in history while appreciating Ploos van Amstel’s exceptional talent for capturing moments frozen in time.
