EDITORS COMMENTS
Approaching Storm; Wind Blown Trees; Boy and Dog Running Home" is an evocative and captivating black and white drawing by the unknown Dutch artist Egbert van Drielst, dating back to the 18th century. The image, which is housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, transports us to a rural landscape where the tranquility of a pastoral scene is interrupted by the ominous approach of a storm. The drawing is executed with remarkable skill and sensitivity, using a combination of black chalk and gray wash over ivory laid paper. The trees in the foreground are depicted with meticulous attention to detail, their branches twisted and bent by the relentless winds that herald the approaching storm. The sky above is filled with ominous clouds, their dark forms looming ominously over the landscape. In the lower right corner of the drawing, two figures can be seen making their way towards a farmhouse. A boy, with a dog at his side, urgently runs towards the safety of home, while an older male figure follows more slowly. The sense of urgency and the contrast between the two figures adds a human element to the scene, making it all the more poignant. The title of the drawing, "Approaching Storm; Wind Blown Trees; Boy and Dog Running Home," perfectly encapsulates the mood and atmosphere of the image. It is a powerful reminder of the capricious and unpredictable nature of the natural world, and the human instinct to seek shelter and safety in the face of adversity. Despite the unknown provenance of the artist, "Approaching Storm; Wind Blown Trees; Boy and Dog Running Home" is a masterful work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of nature.
