Canal in Flanders 1894

"Canal in Flanders" is an 1894 oil painting by Belgian artist Theo van Rysselberghe. The work is a prime example of the artist's signature style, characterized by the use of Neo-Impressionistic techniques, a movement characterized by the application of distinct brushstrokes and a sense of pointillism. The artwork depicts a serene landscape, with a canal running through a grove of trees. The canvas is dominated by the blue hues of the trees, juxtaposed against the vibrant yellow of the grassy bank. The delicate brushstrokes and the bright colors create a sense of light and movement in the landscape.
