Framed Print of "Waiting for the Ferry" by G. Clausen, 1881. Creator: Unknown
"Waiting for the Ferry" by G. Clausen, Institute of Painters in Water Colours, 1881. Engraving of a painting. Not a little of the interest of this picture is due to its excellent technical qualities. It was said, in our notice of the Exhibition of the Institute of Water-Colour Painters that "the artist has derived from the recent Dutch school the secret of the great artistic value of just tonal relations." The drawing consists primarily of two or three great breadths of twilight sky, polder embankment rising darkly against it, and foreground receiving some reflected light; and if these masses were not of the right tone and value, one relative to another, the whole would be spotty and discordant, whereas the drawing is...most telling. But the sentiment also of the picture is quite in keeping with the effect. In the serene summer evening, while the sun's ruddy glow still lingers in the almost cloudless sky, the Dutch haymakers, male and female, with scythe and rake, and the sturdy milkmaid with her yoke and brightly polished brass vessels, are wending towards, or already waiting at the inevitable ferry...It is a type of the transit at the close of life's short day, from which, however, there will be no return on the morrow'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
