Seaching on the web, i did found a lot of good images but some of these are new to me. The Gabriels really look wonderful and the street view of Tholen is striking, as always. He’s such a good tonal painter.

I fell into landscape painting because of these guys, especially because of their use of broken colors. Poems in greys. The true followers of the Barbizon school.
Very honest painters.

The big skies of Jacob Maris, the water of Weissenbruch, the mills of Gabiel and the greens of Mauve.

Yes, Mauve is missing here…

I spent a long time on Scott Bartner’s site – and bookmarked it to spend some more time this weekend. Thanks for sharing!
