EDITORS COMMENTS
Andreas Schelfhout's Inner Courtyard, painted between 1820 and 1830, offers a captivating glimpse into the daily life of a Dutch family during the 19th century. The oil on panel painting depicts a quiet and idyllic scene of a courtyard, surrounded by tiled walls and adorned with a water pump and various household amenities. Three generations of a family are present, including a mother with two young boys, engaged in their chores. One boy is seen peeking out from behind a half door, while the other tends to a dog and a stable door. The mother, dressed in traditional Dutch attire, oversees the scene with a calm and patient expression. The painting is a beautiful representation of the Hague School style, characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and naturalistic color palette. The use of a Dutch door, with its upper half open and lower half closed, allows for a sense of intimacy and privacy while still maintaining a connection to the outside world. This painting, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the rich heritage of Dutch art and the enduring themes of family, motherhood, and daily life.
