Frederick Kruseman was born in 1816 into an eminent family of artists. Kruseman studied under many of the great Dutch landscapists of the Nineteenth Century School, including Koekkoek, Reekers and Roosenboom. His winter landscapes famously depict ice-skaters and figures outdoors while a warm glow of candlelight shines from a window somewhere within the painting.
These winter scenes earned Kruseman the reputation as a successful and popular artist of the Romantic school. |
