Petrus Gerardus Vertin (1819 - 1893) Watercolor on paper, Signed Lower Left, Measures (5.5 x 6.5 inches) w/frame (11 x 12.5 inches) Petrus Gerardus Vertin (1819-1893) was a Dutch painter and graphic artist of the 19th century living in The Hague and focusing on Dutch townscapes and streets. His works are saved in several Dutch museums among others in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, in the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague as well as in the Centraal Museum in Utrecht. Vertin was a scholar of the well-known veduta* painter Bartholomeus Johannes van Hove and for his printed graphic works he chose lithography* and etching. As a painter of Dutch townscapes, he focused on streets, town squares, bridges and canals at different times of the year and presenting different weather situations. His favorite motif shows the following elements: aligning house facades with a street or a canal, a prominent building in the background such as a church, an atmospheric heaven including moving clouds and small men giving kind of narrative character to the paintings.

View of the Kuipersbrug and Waaggebouw, Alkmaar (1877) Signed and dated 77 lower left Oil on canvas, 62.6 x 50.7 cm Note: Petrus Gerardus Vertin was a nineteenth century etcher, lithographer, painter and watercolourist and part of the movement of the The Hague Romanticists. He painted portraits and church interiors, but is best known for his landscapes and cityscapes. In this cityscape of Alkmaar, Vertin depicts the Kuipersbrug and the Waaggebouw. The Kuipers bridge, which is named after the many coopers (translation in Dutch is Kuipers) who used to be active in this street, is a national monument that first appeared on the map of 1560 by Jacob van Deventer. Behind the Kuipers bridge, the Waag building and its tower, rise above the trees. This iconic monument was officially built as a chapel for the nearby Holy Spirit hospital but served as a weighing house beginning in 1583. To this day, the historic building has formed the centre of Alkmaar's famous cheese market, which dates back to at least 1365. * Condition report available upon request
