Fishermen on a Riverbank Notecard

Hendrick Avercamp’s (1585-1634) Fishermen on a Riverbank with the Town of Kampen in the Distance, is an exceptional finished watercolor work by an artist better known for his winter landscapes. The artist not only conveyed a sense of season, but a sense of time with the warm golden glow of late sunset.

This notecard was designed to accompany the exhibition Far and Away: Drawings from the Clement C. Moore Collection on view at the Morgan Library & Museum June 28, 2024 through September 22, 2024.
