Adriaen van de VELDE (1636-1672) The rest of the shepherds Panel, signed lower right on a rock "AVVElde f". 19 x 32 cm Provenance: - Exhibited in the late 19th century at the McLellan Galleries in Glasgow, no. 18 (label on back of panel). - Former Schneider collection. Our painting is characteristic of Adrien van de Velde's pastorals, which made him a huge success. According to his contemporary Arnold Houbraken, he was obliged to go to the fields every week and draw animals on the spot. Trained by his father, the sailor Willem van de Velde the elder, and influenced in his early years by the animal painter Paulus Potter, Adrien van de Velde opened up the space of his landscapes around 1665 under the influence of Italian artists such as Nicolas Berchem and Karel du Jardin, as can be seen here in the light escape on the left, with its reflections of light on the bottom of the clouds or on the tree trunks on the right.
