Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, Two Pendants: Summer and Winter
Est: €40,000 - €60,000
Each signed and dated lower left on a stone: B C Koekkoek 1854 / B C Koekkoek ft. 1854 This composition embodies summer, with a rider, a shepherd and a cow on a path leading into a forest, and a small stream on the left edge of the picture bathed in warm, golden light. The embodiment of winter in the second painting is a snow-covered riverside path with numerous figures, jagged rocks and a view of a castle complex on a hill, depicted in the cold, clear light of a frosty winter day. Despite their small format, these two pendents contain an impressive wealth of detail and finesse in their execution. They are a beautiful example of Barend Cornelis Koekkoek's preference for depicting the seasonal contrasts of summer and winter. However, there does not seem to be a cycle of all four seasons by his hand. The two paintings, dated 1854, are also a striking example of the more complex landscape depictions painted during the artist's more mature phase, in contrast to the earlier works, which feature simpler compositions with panoramic landscapes. Ultimately, however, Koekkoek, who is considered the most important landscape painter of Dutch Romanticism although he moved to Kleve in 1834, was always concerned with depicting the beauty of nature and the harmony between man and the natural world. The reverse of each of the panels bears a label with a hand-written confirmation of authenticity by the artist. Summer: “Dit Schilderijtje, voorstellende een / Boomrijk Landschap bij namiddag / Zon, is geschilderd in het jaar 1854 / Door den Ondergeteekende / B:C: Koekkoek“, Winter: “Dit Schilderijtje, voor[stellende] / Een Boom in rotsachtig [landschap] / bij Winter, is geschilderd in /1854 door den Ondergeteeken[de] / B:C: Koekkoek“ (the label on “Winter“ with some missing spots). Each also bears a label with the coat-of-arms of the Count of Bylandt (with minor losses on the “Summer“) and the Kunstsalon Herm. Abels in Cologne. We would like to thank Dr Guido de Werd for confirming these paintings to be the works of Barend Cornelis Koekkoek. He intends to include the pieces in his forthcoming catalogue raisonné.

Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, Large Winter Landscape
Est: €100,000 - €120,000
Signed and dated lower left: B. C. Koekkoek 1834 This imposing winter landscape is one of the early large format works by the Dutch landscape painter. After a "Summer Landscape" painted in 1830 (98 x 128 cm, Gorissen 30/98) and a "Mountain Landscape" painted in 1833, once in the possession of Queen Wilhelmina, this picture is an impressive example of Barend Cornelis Koekkoek's landscape painting. The viewer's gaze begins at a tree-covered rock face on the left edge of the picture and is led into the distance by means of a path and the course of a river. The painting was created in 1834, the year B. C. Koekkeok moved to Kleve. Although it is a rather early work, it already combines all the characteristics and quality of this great landscape painter: the masterly perspective, the detailed depiction of nature and the atmosphere. The evening light shimmers slightly golden through the bare and snow-covered branches of a group of trees in the centre and illuminates the few clouds in the sky from below. A lone farmer drives his loaded mules past a chapel that stands to the left of the path. Koekkeok had by then already found the tone and mood for his paintings, which were to be celebrated throughout Europe.

Gorissen: B.C. Koekkoek, 1803-1862. Werkverzeichnis der Gemälde, Düsseldorf 1962, no. 49/40. Provenance: Collection Werner, Baden-Baden; Collection Körber, Brunswick; Lempertz, Cologne 25/27.6.1987 Lot 326; Private ownership, Germany. Barend Cornelis, the eldest and probably the most successful of the four sons of the painter Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek, painted the present Rhine landscape in Kleve in 1849. The play with light in his landscape paintings is captivating, and he mastered it like no other. The effect that the main representative of Dutch Romanticism achieved through the targeted use of light and shadow effects charmed already his contemporaries. The present painting is one of the finest works by the artist. It depicts a deep and sweeping view of the stormy Rhine landscape, which is also representative of the artist's topographical interest. Viewed from an elevated vantage point, the Siebengebirge with its popular excursion destination, the Drachenfels, can be seen on the other side of the river. An approaching thunderstorm darkens the sky; the last rays of sunlight fall on the opposite bank while the tree in the foreground is caught by the strong wind. Dust rises and a couple laboriously walks along the castle against the wind. The composition is incomparable, clearly inspired by the reality of an existing place and romanticising nature. We are grateful to Guido de Werd, Cologne, for confirming the authenticity of the present work after examination in the original. Explanations to the Catalogue

Our thanks to Christian Lucht, M.A., and to Dr Guido de Werd who have confirmed the authenticity of this work having examined it in the original. --------------- BAREND CORNELIS KOEKKOEK (Middelburg 1803–1862 Kleve) Bewaldete Flusslandschaft. 1857. Öl auf Holz. Unten links auf dem Stein signiert und datiert: BC Koekkoek. f. 1857. 33,7 × 46,3 cm. Provenienz: - Privatsammlung A. Dobbertin von Rochow, Lugano. - Privatsammlung Baronin Viktoria Dagmar von Rochow (1931–2022). - Durch Erbschaft, Schweizer Privatbesitz. Christian Lucht, M.A., und Dr. Guido de Werd bestätigen die Eigenhändigkeit nach Prüfung des Originals, wofür wir ihnen danken. Viktoria Dagmar Litscher von Rochow geb. Baronin von Rochow entstammt einer preussischen Adelsfamilie aus Brandenburg. Ihr Vorfahre, Friedrich Eberhard von Rochow (1734–1805), war ein wichtiger Pädagoge zur Zeit der Aufklärung und bekannt für seine philanthropische Schulreformen, welche er in einer aufklärerischen Musterschule auf dem Familienschloss in Reckhahn einführte. Heute befindet sich auf dem Schloss das einzige Schulmuseum im Land Brandenburg (für weitere bibliographische Angaben siehe: Hanno Schmitt und Frank Tosch (Hg.): Vernunft fürs Volk – Friedrich Eberhard von Rochow im Aufbruch Preussens, Henschel Verlag, 2001). Viktoria Dagmar studierte Kunstgeschichte und Journalismus an der Sorbonne in Paris. Sie heiratete einen Schweizer Unternehmer und reiste mit ihrer Offenheit und ihrer Liebe zur Kunst durch die Welt. Einige behutsam zusammengetragene und aus ihrem Familienbesitz stammende Liebhaberstücke werden nun zum Verkauf angeboten. Nebst Einrichtungsgegenständen (aus der Genfer Liegenschaft) und qualitätsvollen Miniaturmalereien aus der Zeit des deutschsprachigen Klassizismus und des französischen Empires, welche im Auktionskatalog für Decorative Arts präsentiert werden, stechen mehrere Landschaftsgemälde der Künstlerfamilie Koekkoek ins Auge (Lose 3220–3222). Die niederländische Künstlerdynastie brachte über mehrere Generationen eine Reihe an begabten Marine- und Landschaftsmalern hervor, von denen drei in der Sammlung Litscher von Rochow mit je einem Werk vertreten sind. Das hier angebotene Spätwerk von B. C. Koekkoek aus dem Jahr 1857 zeigt eine für den Maler typische romantische Landschaftsszene mit Abendstimmung (Los 3220). Das zweite Landschaftsstück, gemalt vom Marinemaler Hermanus Koekkoek d. Ä. (1815–1882), stellt eine Seltenheit im Œuvre des Malers dar und entstand 1863, wohl in Gedenken an den im Vorderjahr verstorbenen Bruder B. C. Koekkoek (Los 3222). Abgerundet wird das Angebot von einer Landschaft von Pieter Hendrik Koekkoek (1843–1927) aus der dritten Generation der Künstlerdynastie Koekkoek (Los 3221). ---------------
