EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print, titled "Facade of a corner house with an open dormer window," is a masterpiece by the renowned Dutch artist Adriaen van Ostade. The work is believed to be based on a drawing by his brother Isaac van Ostade. The intricate detail and authenticity of the artwork transport us back in time to the Netherlands during the late 1600s. The image showcases a picturesque corner house, its facade adorned with intricate woodwork, shuttered windows, and a gabled roof. The open dormer window at the top of the house adds an element of charm and invites the viewer to imagine the daily life of its inhabitants. The use of chalk, color, and watercolor paints, as well as pencil and wattle and daub techniques, highlights the artist's exceptional skill and dedication to capturing the essence of Dutch architecture during this period. The lumber used in the construction of the house is evident in the detailed representation of the timber framing. The roof, with its distinctive red tiles, adds a pop of color against the predominantly brown and beige tones of the building. The shutters, which are closed on the lower floors but open at the dormer window, suggest a balance between privacy and openness. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Netherlands and the skill of Adriaen van Ostade in capturing the beauty and character of Dutch buildings during the seventeenth century.
