Philip de KONINCK.
inter: b. 1619, d. 1688 : pupil of Rembrandt: worked at Amsterdam.
. Landscape: an open country with a river.
Water-colours.
(B.M.).
; (a) (b). Two sketches of riverside landscape.
Pen and ink and indian ink wash.
(b) From the Harman and James collections.
(M. 785, 7$7).
385. Landscape with a road beside a canal.
Pen and ink.
From the Mitchell collection.
(M. Add. 29).
The above three are very genuine if not particularly important examples of
Rembrandt’s characteristic feeling and power in landscape work. Not
so the next following, which, in spite of its pedigree from several excellent
collections, belongs to a group of colour-tinted drawings which show a
different feeling from Rembrandt’s, and which modern criticism has
justly removed from among his works to transfer them to those of one
or other of his pupils, as Eeckhout or P. de Koninck: in this case
probably De Koninck. An unquestionable and fine example of the
last named master, with his characteristic wide horizon, and outlook
over a sweeping stretch of country, follows in the next case (noi, 387).
Next comes a selection of examples by artists who were for the most
Rembrandt’s immediate scholars or associates, or who fell more or less decisively*
under his influence. Eeckhout, who among his pupils properly so called was
one of those coming nearest to the master, is here the best represented. Pictures
by Eeckhout have not infrequently passed as the works of Rembrandt himself^
e.g., the Christ blessing little children, in the National Gallery. £
Gerbrant van den EECKHOUT.
Painter of devotional and historical subjects, landscape, portraits, &c.
Dutch School: b. 1621, d. 1674: pupil of Rembrandt: worked at ->
Amsterdam.
388. Pastoral scene: women at a bench beside a wood,
children, shepherds, &c.
Pen and indian ink and red chalk, with indian ink wash.
(M. 688).
389. Jacob and Laban.
Drawn with the brush in sepia and indian ink.
(B.M.).
