From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Two Beams Floating in the Water is a 1650 ink by Allart van Everdingen, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a serene landscape with a small wooden house nestled among trees and bushes. The house features a sloping roof and a chimney, surrounded by a fence that extends to the left. In the foreground, a small stream flows through the scene, with two logs floating on the water. The atmosphere is peaceful, with a cloudy sky above. The artist's use of etching creates a sense of texture and depth in the image. The lines and shading add a sense of realism to the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the details of the landscape. This painting is a beautiful example of the Baroque movement.
Allaert van Everdingen (Dutch pronunciation: ; bapt. 18 June 1621 – 8 November 1675 (buried)), was a Dutch Golden Age painter and printmaker in etching and mezzotint.
