Albert Cuyp - Sunset on the river (1650-1660)



Son of Art who learned the rudiments of painting from his father and overcame it without much effort.
Thanks to its bold cuts and studied compositions, it does not search for environments or make portraits but gives shape and color to feelings.
The two figures of the shepherd and shepherdess accentuate that idea of peace in this calm vespers.
A painter who does not paint an object but recreates the feeling, even if it is a simple echo.
