Farm Building Surrounded by Trees
Painter: Hercules Segers
Year:
-
Medium: oil, over a sketch in black chalk, on paper prepared with an opaque, dark grey-blue ground
Description: This oil sketch probably came from Segers’ studio estate. The composition may have served as preparation for the adjacent etching (Kupferstich-Kabinett, Dresden, A 49377) and therefore was not a final product, but rather working material.
