EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing winter scene painted by the talented Dutch artist Hendrick Avercamp. Titled "Winter Scene Two Gentlemen Playing Colf" this artwork transports us to a serene and snowy landscape in the Netherlands during the early 17th century. In this picturesque setting, two gentlemen engage in a lively game of colf, an ancient precursor to modern-day golf. Clad in warm attire, they skillfully navigate their way through the icy terrain with wooden clubs, aiming for distant targets hidden beneath blankets of snow. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he captures every stroke and movement with remarkable precision. Avercamp's mastery of pencil, pen and ink, along with gouache techniques, brings depth and texture to this small yet impactful piece measuring 9.4 x 15.6 cm (3 11/16 x 6 1/8 in. ). The delicate strokes create intricate patterns on the frozen water surface while conveying a sense of tranquility amidst the wintry atmosphere. As we gaze upon this exquisite print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness not only a playful moment between two individuals but also gain insight into the cultural significance of outdoor activities during harsh winters in Dutch society.
