Hendrick van Anthonissen
(Amsterdam 1605–1656)
Ships in coastal waters, with Amsterdam in the background,
monogrammed at lower right (on a piece of driftwood): H. V. AN.
oil on panel, 27.5 x 43.5 cm, framed
Provenance:
French private collection
After his apprenticeship under his father, the marine painter Aert Anthonisz., Hendrick van Anthonissen became a student of Jan Porcellis, in whose studio he worked between 1624 and 1626. He adopted Porcelli’s monochrome palette and atmospheric effects, produced by water and the sky. Limiting himself exclusively to brown hues, Anthonissen managed to create sensitive interpretations of events on and off the Dutch coast. The present painting is datable to the period around 1656 and may be compared to a composition in the Marine Museum in Greenwich painted around the same time.
