Anon, after Jan van de Velde II – Field with Ewes c1610
etching – trimmed to image – 10.9 x 22.1 cm
Unframed – Price : £100
Possibly from the workshop of Jan Claes Visscher, a major publisher of Velde’s etchings
This etching was attributed to Jan van de Velde for many years though it is now thought not to be by him and has been removed from his catalogue. It is close in style nonetheless.
Condition: Good impression in good condition. Slight evidence of light staining in parts of top edge, with two spots of paper thinning. Slight printers creases in left half. Otherwise in good condition without signs of holes or foxing.
