EDITORS COMMENTS
This winter landscape painting by Gysbrecht Lytens takes us back in time to the 17th century. The Flemish artist skillfully captures the essence of a cold and serene winter day, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in this frozen wonderland. The scene depicts a picturesque countryside covered in a thick blanket of snow. A frozen lake stretches out before us, its glassy surface reflecting the soft hues of the wintry sky above. On the lake, we see figures gracefully gliding across the ice, enjoying a leisurely afternoon of skating. Their presence adds a touch of liveliness to an otherwise tranquil setting. Tall trees stand tall on either side of the lake, their bare branches reaching towards each other as if seeking warmth and companionship. One tree trunk lies fallen on the ground, serving as both an obstacle for skaters and an interesting element within the composition. Lytens' masterful use of oil paints brings depth and texture to every stroke, capturing not only nature's beauty but also evoking emotions associated with wintertime: nostalgia for childhood games played on icy ponds or memories spent bundled up by roaring fires. Displayed at Nantes' Musee des Beaux Arts, this artwork serves as a testament to Lytens' talent and his ability to transport us through time with his brushstrokes alone. It is truly a treasure that allows us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously.
