EDITORS COMMENTS
Selling the Loot" is a captivating watercolor painting by the Dutch artist Herman Frederik Carel Ten Kate, created in 1859. This intriguing genre scene transports us back to the 16th or 19th century, as the line between these centuries blurs in this vivid work of art. The painting showcases an indoor setting, with a seller and several men gathered around a table, engaged in a lively exchange. The seller, dressed in a long coat and a top hat adorned with ostrich feathers, proudly displays an array of apparel and accessories for sale. The items on the table include padded hose, tights, hats, and various clothing pieces, some of which feature intricate designs and bold colors. The men, dressed in attire reflective of the era, intently examine the merchandise, their expressions revealing a mix of interest and deliberation. The seller counts coins and paper money on the table, while a man in the background adds up the total on a sheet of paper. The atmosphere is filled with the excitement and anticipation of a successful trade. The use of naturalistic colors and fine details in the painting adds to its authenticity and charm, making it a valuable addition to the heritage of European art. This masterpiece, titled "Selling the Loot," is a testament to the rich history of the Low Countries and the intricacies of 16th or 19th century fashion, finance, and trade. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the arts, history, or the human experience. The Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands is proud to house this stunning watercolor painting in its esteemed collection.
