Happy Birthday Adriaen van de Velde!! Dutch painter, born in 1636, van de Velde was the son of painter Willem. His brothers were also painters. He trained under his father and Wynants, specializing in landscapes and Italian motifs, although he probably never visited Italy. Van de Velde also added figures into other painters’ works, including his brother, Wynants, Hobbema, and van der Heyden. His untimely death at age 36 cut short this brilliant painter’s career. Amusement on the Ice is the painting I am including here today...
