Cornelis Claesz. van Wieringen
[Saleroom Notice]
(Haarlem circa 1580–1633)
Fisher boats in choppy seas near Haarlem,
oil on canvas, 66 x 102 cm, framed
The painting probably shows a view of the Spaarne with the village of Spaarndam and the city of Haarlem with the Bavo church in the background.
Provenance:
sale, Dorotheum, Vienna, 23 May 1944, lot 174;
Private collection, Austria
The present painting of a blustery harbour scene with grey, foreboding clouds coming in from the left, and fisher boats struggling to navigate the choppy waters, is a characteristic example of the seascape paintings that Cornelis Claesz. van Wieringen specialised in. Aside from being the son of a captain, van Wieringen is generally assumed to have been a pupil of Hendrick Vroom (1566–1640), whose work had greatly influenced his own, notably the usage of the same deep greenish-blue tones. He received numerous distinguished commissions from public institutions from the city of Haarlem, where he was also governor of the Haarlem Guild of St Luke. Van Wieringen is widely regarded as one of the foremost early practitioners of Dutch marine painting.
