Cornelis Jan Bolt, Pastoral Landscape with Distant Hills, 19th Century Dutch Antique Oil Painting

19th century
Description

A fine mid-19th-century oil on panel by Dutch landscape painter, Cornelis Jan Bolt (1823-1879). In the foreground, a gentle light reflects from the ripples on a small pond. While out towards the horizon, the scenic layers appear gradually lighter as the hills disappear from view.

Note how Bolt has intelligently guided the viewer by using a large crooked tree as a visual waypoint. This is further enhanced by the use of deeper tones on the left versus an open sky on the right.

Little is known about Cornelis Jan Bolt aside from various exhibition catalogues that refer to his work. He appears to have spent most of his working life in Arnhem. He’s currently represented at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and his works have appeared at Christie’s and Sotheby’s.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
