Young and old, rich and poor keep a close eye on canals, rivers and lakes when temperatures drop. No one has depicted this connection with winter more beautifully than Hendrik Avercamp (1585-1634). It was he who made the &#8216;ice scene&#8217; into an independent genre at the beginning of the 17th century. He was the first artist to specialize in painting winter landscapes with entertainment on the ice. In his composition of scenes, you will find all pleasures related to being on the ice.<\/p>\n<p>In this depiction of a frozen <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Haarlemmermeer#History\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Haarlemmermeer<\/a> in front we see fishermen working with a net, gentlemen playing <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kolven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kolf<\/a> (the Dutch game of early golf), and a hunter carrying a gun and a duck that he caught. In the backgrond there is a ship locked in the ice. Skaters enjoy themselves and people ride horse drawn sleighs.<\/p>\n<p>There is a timelessness in Avercamp&#8217;s scenes that is still recognizable today.
