EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Watering Place, Stopping Place" we are transported back to the year 1660 by Salomon van Ruysdael's masterful brushstrokes. The scene depicts a moment of respite for weary travelers and their trusty steeds in front of a charming inn. A few cars and riders have paused their journey, seeking solace from the arduous road ahead. As our gaze shifts to the foreground, we witness a serene sight: cows leisurely quenching their thirst from a nearby ditch while a diligent shepherd tends to his flock. Amongst them, a small group of chickens peck at the ground, adding an element of rustic charm to this idyllic countryside setting. Van Ruysdael's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; each blade of grass seems alive with movement as it sways gently in the breeze. The artist's use of oil paint brings depth and richness to the colors, enhancing our immersion into this tranquil world frozen in time. This remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection invites us to pause and reflect on simpler times when nature provided both sustenance and sanctuary. It serves as a reminder that even amidst life's hustle and bustle, finding moments of rest can be essential for both man and beast alike.
