Study of Three Old Gnarled Trees

Jan Siberechts Flemish

Not on view

With a delicate use of gray wash and watercolor, Siberechts details the irregular forms and rugged textures of three trunks, arrayed across the sheet. A Flemish landscape painter who specialized in rustic and pastoral scenes, he spent his later years in England working for aristocratic clients. From the date on this work, however, it would appear that it was executed in or around his native Antwerp.
