More about this artwork

Titled "Graf van Mr. Carel Vosmaer te Territet (1891)", this evocative painting by Jozef Israëls captures a moment of solemn reflection. The artwork portrays the grave of Mr. Carel Vosmaer, a noted figure born in Zwammerdam on March 20, 1826, and who passed away in Territet on June 12, 1889. Israëls, renowned for his skill in rendering human emotion and the subtleties of light, uses a muted palette that conveys a quiet, almost serene solemnity.The scene is set against a backdrop of a cloudy sky and a subdued landscape, focusing the viewer's attention on the grave itself. The tombstone stands stark and prominently at the center, inscribed clearly with Vosmaer's details. The surrounding area is gently adorned with small clusters of flowers, suggesting the care and remembrance of loved ones. Despite the simplicity of the scene, there is a profound sense of depth and texture, achieved through Israëls' masterful watercolor techniques.

Jozef Israëls was a Dutch painter. He was a leading member of the group of landscape painters referred to as the Hague School and, during his lifetime, "the most respected Dutch artist of the second half of the nineteenth century".

He was born in Groningen, of Jewish parents. His father, Hartog Abraham Israëls, intended for him to be a businessman, and it was only after a determined struggle that he was allowed to embark on an artistic career. He studied initially from 1835 to 1842 at the Minerva Academy in his home town Groningen.
