Mathys Schoevaerdts - Old Master Paintings

(Brussels c. 1665 – after 1702)
Two River Landscapes with Buildings, Unloading a Catch of Fish; Winter Pleasures,
oil on canvas, each 40 x 57.5 cm, framed, (2)

Provenance:
Belgian aristocratic collection

In 1682, Mathys Schoevaerdts was apprenticed to the landscape painter Adriaen Frans Boudewyns in Brussels. From 1692 to 1696, he was chairman of the Brussels guild of painters. His decorative landscapes, created under the spell of Paul Bril and Jan Brueghel I, are often mistaken for works by Pieter Bout and Adriaen Frans Boudewyns, with whom the artist occasionally collaborated.

We are grateful to Dr. Jan de Maere, Brussels, who confirmed the attribution on the basis of digital photographs, for his kind assistance in the cataloguing of this work.
