  • 1825.-.-/ maison de ventes : Hickman (John). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This much esteemed Master, during his short career, has left but few of such of his elaborate and highly finished productions as the one before us, which may vie with the celebrated picture of Orpheus charming the Brute Creation, placed in the Museum at Amsterdam. This little bijou represents a scene of flat country, with a Farm in the distance embowered with trees, and Cattle pasturing; in the middle ground, a Cowherd, with his Dog by him, is sleeping beneath a rail fence, near him a Cow is standing with her head elevated as in the act of lowing; on a bank on the opposite side rises a clustre of trees in luxuriant foliage; the foreground is beautifully enriched with plants and herbage, and the boll of a tree, with the bark on, is finished to the truth of nature. The rich tone and force of colour pervading through this gem produce an effect equal to a Landscape of great magnitude, evincing the powerful genius of this inimitable Painter. (Paul Potter)|This much esteemed Master, during his short career, has left but few of such of his elaborate and highly finished productions as the one before us, which may vie with the celebrated picture of Orpheus charming the Brute Creation, placed in the Museum at Amsterdam.
