Jan Weissenbruch Paintings in GeocodedArt

View of the Wall Houses at the Thieves Tower in Amersfoort





Painting by Jan Weissenbruch (1822-1880).  The crisp architectural style is quite distinct from that of his cousin's looser landscape work.  He did not pick the most imposing civic structures as his subjects, though they all include recognizable features.  His viewpoints are always such that a feeling for average street life is appreciated.
