EDITORS COMMENTS
The Edge of the Oak Wood, 1666" is a captivating oil painting by the Dutch artist Cornelis Gerritsz. Decker, earlier attributed to Johannes Lingelbach. This masterpiece, created during the Baroque era, transports us to the serene beauty of the seventeenth century. The painting depicts a tranquil scene of a woodland edge, where the sun casts a warm glow on the lush, green foliage. The oak tree at the center stands majestically, its gnarled branches reaching out to embrace the sky. The tree is home to a herd of Danish cattle, grazing peacefully amidst the vibrant colors of the plants and trees. Cornelis Gerritsz. Decker masterfully captures the essence of the countryside, with the rich, earthy tones of the soil and the vibrant hues of the vegetation. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate textures of the bark, the delicate petals of the flowers, and the individual blades of grass. This painting is a testament to the beauty of nature and the simple pleasures of rural life. It invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple things in life, such as the sound of cattle lowing in the distance, the gentle rustling of leaves in the breeze, and the warmth of the sun on our faces. The painting is currently housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, where it is a cherished part of Denmark's cultural heritage. It is a reminder of the rich artistic traditions of the Low Countries and the enduring beauty of the natural world.
