Happy Birthday Jacob van Strij!! Born in the Netherlands in 1756, Jacob van Strij, the son of a painter, studied in Antwerp Academy, as did his brother Abraham. He became a landscape painter and also created several wall hangings for clients. His painting was hindered by health problems including gout. The Landscape with Cattle (1850) below is an oil painting on wood and hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
