LITERATURE AND REFERENCES

CATALOGUE NOTE

Fredericus Theodorus Renard (1778-1820) was a topographical artist from Amsterdam who painted in the style of Hendrik Keun (1738-1787), Jacob Cats (1741-1799) and Isaac Ouwater (1750-1793). These Dutch landscape painters from the late 18th century painted mainly after prints by Jan de Beyer (1703-c. 1785), Pieter van Liender (1727-1779) and Hermanus Pieter Schouten (1747-1822). These paintings are painted after two prints by H. P. Schouten (see: Gezichten van voornaame Hollandse dorpen, Evert Maaskamp, Amsterdam circa 1775) and are datable to circa 1800 to 1815.
We are grateful to Professor Dr Sluÿter for confirming these as the paintings published in his article (see literature) on the basis of photographs.
