Landscape
Artist: Jan Willem van Borselen
Date: 1890
Few painters have been able to capture the Dutch landscape as accurately as Jan Willem van Borselen. He painted the vast green landscapes with their river banks, reed fringes, white willow trees and sandy paths with farms. He often let a cool breeze blow through his tree tops, in such a way that the observer can almost feel the breeze.
Van Borselen built up his work in clear green and blue tints and was extremely skilled in composition and perspective. Characteristic of his landscapes are the diagonal lines and the stunning play of light from sun and shadows alternating with each other, which further enhance the effect of depth.
He often filled in the picture with a few figures, cows along the bank or a little boat in the water. The brushwork of J.W. van Borselen was initially considerably fine, in emulation of his teacher Andreas Schelfhout. Later, when Impressionism made its entry into the Dutch art world, Van Borselen’s brushwork also became looser.
In contrast to his predecessors, he tried to depict nature as realistically as possible, without frills or large-scale effects. In this way, Van Borselen showed himself as an innovator. His work was praised for its freshness, originality and naturalism. Van Borselen therefore received great appreciation for his work. He often took part in exhibitions in the Netherlands and abroad and received many awards. Van Borselen sold his work on a regular basis to important private collectors as well as to prestigious museums. His clients even included the Dutch Royal Family.
Your artwork will replicate authentic paintings found in museums; using the same ink, paper and printing methods they do.
Our archival Giclée prints are loved for their vibrant colour range and the handmade feel of their beautifully textured papers. Each piece of Heritage Art is printed on 312gsm fine art media. The print you will receive is made from 100% cotton pulp, guaranteed to last hundreds of years without fading or discolouration.
Our pigment ink has longevity rates of over 100 years. We use eight different ink colours profiled to match the archival paper to achieve a perfectly colour accurate reproduction of the original art piece.
Our board mounted prints are the traditional way of displaying your artwork and provide added protection from warping in the frame over time. Board mounted prints can also be displayed without a frame.
The process of archival art mounting involves fixing your artwork to an acid-free substrate. This enables your print to sit flat, either directly onto a wall or in a frame. Made from 100% virgin fibre, with a 2mm thickness, board mounted prints are an exceptionally light and cost-effective mount for creating a beautiful flat print prior to framing.
Unmounted prints are printed onto the same exceptional fine art paper and will require framing.
