About the Item
Hermanus Koekkoek the Younger was a member of the renowned Koekkoek artist family. He was the grandson of Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek, the nephew of the landscape painter Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, and the son of Hermanus Koekkoek the Elder. Following in his family's artistic footsteps, his son, Stephen Robert Koekkoek, also pursued a career as a painter. Hermanus, along with his brothers Willem, Johannes Hermanus Barend, and Hendrik Barend, received his initial art lessons from his father, who had recently settled in Amsterdam.
During the 1860s, Hermanus began making regular visits to London and eventually decided to settle there in 1869. It was during this time that he adopted the pseudonym "Jan van Couver" when selling his works in London. The painting we are selling belongs to this period. It showcases Hermanus' talent for capturing landscape views with an impressionistic touch. The brushstrokes are spontaneous and confident, while the composition is skillfully constructed using a thick layer of impasto, lending it a sense of three-dimensionality.
Hermanus drew inspiration from the Hague School, particularly in his portrayal of dramatic elements such as the clouds.

Impressionistic Summer Landscape with Road Painted 1889
Located in Stockholm, SE
Carl Johansson's "Summer Landscape with Road" is an exquisite landscape that encapsulates the serene beauty of the Swedish countryside. Painted in 1889, the same year Johansson showcased his work at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, one can't help but wonder if this very painting was among those displayed at the fair.
"Summer Landscape with Road" offers a glimpse into the idyllic Swedish countryside through its masterful depiction. The scene is bathed in the distinctive light of the sun positioned at 30 degrees north-northwest, a unique aspect of Johansson's artworks. The viewer's eye is drawn along a winding dirt road that meanders through a tranquil pastoral landscape. Birch trees, with their white bark and tender green leaves, stand tall and sway gently, marking the passage toward a distant homestead nestled beside a calm lake. The rustic wooden fences and the clear sky, dotted with soft, billowing clouds, evoke a sense of peaceful solitude.
Johansson's meticulous attention to detail and colour is evident in every brushstroke, from the lush greenery to the soft, earthy path leading to the horizon. The artist's signature use of light not only highlights the natural beauty of the North but also enhances the sense of depth and realism in the painting.
Johansson's early works, such as this one, are exceedingly rare, making "Summer Landscape with Road" not only a visual delight but also a collector's gem. The painting's magnificent gold frame enhances the bright, vivid colours of the small-format artwork, creating an impactful presence.
Carl Johansson's blue impressionistic depictions of Northern Sweden earned him the nickname "Ultramarine Johansson", and his paintings are celebrated in prestigious collections, including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Kalmar Art Museum, and the municipality of Hudiksvall.
