About the Item

Atmospheric oil on canvas landscape, signed lower right and most likely by Johann Hermann ter Hell. The painting depicts a tranquil river scene with moored barges and several windmills in the background, bathed in soft daylight under a textured, cloudy sky. Executed with a painterly impasto technique and a naturalistic palette of greens, browns, and muted blues, the composition reflects the artist’s deep connection to the Dutch countryside and maritime tradition. The rhythmic placement of windmills and reflections in the water evoke both movement and calm — hallmarks of the Hague School influence that shaped ter Hell’s style. Artist: Attributed to Johann Hermann ter Hell Medium: Oil on canvas Signature: Signed lower right Dimensions (framed): 63 cm (H) × 53 cm (W) Frame: Simple period wooden frame Condition: Good; minor craquelure and light surface wear consistent with age. A fine example of Dutch plein-air painting, capturing the serenity of rural waterways and the architectural grace of windmills — a subject central to the Netherlands’ artistic heritage.
