About the Item
This atmospheric village landscape, attributed to Jacob de Villiers (1616–1667), presents a wonderfully serene glimpse into rural life in the Dutch Golden Age. The composition brings together softly rolling terrain, charming farmhouses, a small church structure, and groups of villagers going about their daily routines. Sheep graze in the foreground, while figures gather near cottages and pathways, giving the scene a warm sense of lived-in authenticity.
De Villiers—known as a rare painter of mountain and river landscapes with architecture—is admired for his harmonious balance of natural scenery and human presence. His works often display a gentle rhythm of light and shadow, as seen here in the delicate modeling of trees, the muted yet glowing sky, and the subtle detailing of the buildings. The fine brushwork and earthy palette contribute to a peaceful, timeless atmosphere.
Historical notes provided on the back indicate that de Villiers created paintings for the Dutch Admiralty and, in 1646, produced landscapes for ship cabins commissioned by Prince Frederick Henry. This connection highlights the painter’s respected status during his lifetime.
The piece is framed in a richly toned, period-appropriate wooden frame that enhances the artwork’s depth and elegance. Altogether, this is a captivating and collectible example of 17th-century Dutch landscape painting—ideal for admirers of the Golden Age and those seeking an artwork with both beauty and historical resonance.

Early 18th Century Dutch Landscape Painting Attributed to Théobald Michau
By Abraham Brueghel
Located in NICE, FR
This wonderful oil painting on canvas portrays a vibrant Dutch landscape and is attributed to Théobald Michau (1676-1765). It is characterised by a realistic depiction of everyday rural life in a flat Dutch landscape, emphasising intricate details of the scenery and luminism in the portrayal of light effects. The atmospheric perspective creates depth and portrays the dynamic influence of changing weather conditions in the painting, due to its use of soft colours in the background, giving the illusion of depth and distance. It is presented within a modern wooden frame and dates back to the 18th century, maintaining an impeccable condition.
Théobald Michau was a Flemish painter known for his landscapes and genre paintings more famous in his own time than he is today. He began his training at the age of ten in Brussels under Lucas Achtschellinck, also a landscape painter. In 1698, he became a master in the Guild of Brussels, and in 1710, he was elected as a member of the Guild of Antwerp. He is considered a follower of Flemish landscape masters of the 17th century, such as Jan Brueghel the Elder...
