Dutch Painting, St. Lawrence, 2016-03-22, Beaudoin
Theme
Historical (allegory), Genre scene, Landscape Composition
‘Photographic’ Geometric structure
Light Use to model but also create atmosphere
Color Extended but somber palette (quiet, serene atmosphere)
Texture & Medium Oil paint, controlled impasto
Iconography Little use of symbols (save in allegories)
Novelties Complete mastery of effects of light Care of detail (especially in textures) Observation of reality is pushed to the limit
What makes a Vermeer a Vermeer
