Joseph Van Luppen - "Farmer with cows in the forest"

Beautiful, finely detailed etching by the Belgian painter and graphic artist Joseph Gérard Van Luppen (1834-1891)

Van Luppen studied at the Antwerp Art Academy under Jacob Jacobs and later in Paris with the famous Barbizon School painter Théodore Rousseau. His work shows influences of Impressionism, although he was often considered a traditionalist painter by later critics. He painted realistic landscapes and traveled through Belgium in search of suitable subjects. He visited, among other things, the often painted castle ruins of Montaigle in the Ardennes. He also traveled through Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy.

His works can be found in museums such as the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Ghent.
