EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of the Horse Fair on the Maliebaan in The Hague. Painted by Cornelis Albertus Johannes Schermer in 1858, this masterpiece showcases a bustling scene filled with activity and excitement. On the left side of the image, we see traders engaged in animated conversations, discussing prices and negotiating deals. Their expressions reveal their passion for horses and their expertise in trading these magnificent creatures. Meanwhile, on the right side of the painting, a servant can be seen gently guiding a horse as it trots gracefully. This momentary pause amidst all the commotion allows us to appreciate both the beauty and strength of these majestic animals. In the background lies an open field adorned with white tents that add a touch of elegance to this lively event. These temporary structures serve as shelters for both buyers and sellers during this bustling fair. Schermer's masterful use of oil paint brings life to every detail captured within this artwork. From intricate brushstrokes depicting individual strands of horse manes to vibrant colors that evoke a sense of energy, his talent shines through in every aspect. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection is not only visually stunning but also offers us a glimpse into an important historical event that celebrated equestrian culture and trade.
