Old-fashioned Dutch winters with severe frosts were captured by the great masters of the dutch Golden Age.
Old fashioned Dutch winters with severe frosts, thick layers of snow and frozen lakes and canals with everyone skating have become rare. But they were captured by the great masters of the Dutch Golden Age. I would like to show you how this typically Dutch genre developed and talk about some of the famous works by artists like Hendrick Averkamp, Jacob van Ruisdael, Jan van Goyen and Rembrandt who showed the traditional Dutch landscape at its coldest.
