Description
English: Landscape paintings were sought-after by the art-loving bourgeoisie in seventeenth-century Holland. Jacob Isaackszoon van Ruisdael became one of the most successful painters in this area. In this view over the town Egmont he applied himself to an advanced depiction of the play of light and shadow. The town lies under the shadow of clouds, but with some effort one can make out a wealth of detail. The light in the painting is concentrated to a small area in the foreground, as if to alert us to the figures by the roadside.
Svenska: Landskapsmotiv efterfrågades av det konstintresserade borgerskapet i 1600-talets Holland. Jakob Isaackszoon van Ruisdael blev en av de mest framgångsrika på området. I den här vyn över staden Egmont har han ägnat sig åt ett avancerat ljus- och skuggspel. Staden ligger i skugga under molnen, men anstränger man blicken framträder den ändå i sin detaljrikedom. Ljuset i målningen är koncentrerat till ett litet område i förgrunden, som för att uppmärksamma oss på figurerna i vägkanten.
