EDITORS COMMENTS
Philip Wouverman's Horsemen Stop, between 1639 and 1668, is a captivating oil painting that transports us back to the Baroque era of the 17th century. This masterpiece, created by the Dutch artist Philips Pauwelsz Wouwerman, showcases a group of horsemen and boys arriving at an inn, their horses pausing at a puddle in the foreground. The painting's rich colors and white highlights bring the scene to life, with the horses' coats glistening in the sunlight and the boys' clothing adding a pop of color against the earthy tones of the landscape. The Horsemen Stop is a testament to the Dutch and French artistic heritage of the time, with influences from both the Low Countries and France evident in the painting's composition and subject matter. The painting's exterior setting, with the inn in the background and the riders arriving from the left, creates a sense of arrival and travel, adding to the concept of movement and the passage of time. The painting is now housed in the Musée du Petit Palais in Paris, one of the city's renowned museums, where it continues to be a beloved and important part of the institution's collection. The Horsemen Stop is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly those with a focus on the Baroque era and the works of Philips Pauwelsz Wouwerman.
