Jacob Henricus Maris, Dutch 1837-1899- Dutch canal with sailing boats by a windmill; oil on canvas, signed 'Jacob Maris.' (lower left), 46.5 x 81.2 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Maris was a central member of The Hague School of painters, along with his brothers Willem and Matthijs. He developed a formidable reputation as one of the key landscape painters of 19th-century Netherlands, building on the developments of 17th-century artists including Jan van Goyen (1596-1656) and Jacob van Ruisdael (1628-1682), whilst also clearly indebted to the contemporary Impressionist movement, particularly in his loose application of paint.
