This lot consists of a hand painted Oil on Wood rendered in style of the Dutch painter Cornelius De Beet (1772- 1840)
Born and trained in Amsterdam, Cornelius de Beet immigrated to Baltimore around 1810, the year in which his name first appeared in the city directories. Subsequent listings through 1840 identify him variously as an ornamental, landscape and fancy painter. De Beet exhibited landscape and still life subjects at the Pennsylvania Academy from 1812 until 1832, and at the Peale Museum in 1822. Most of the landscapes were views of the Baltimore countryside.
