If Hobbema Had Seen Ireland 1989

"If Hobbema Had Seen Ireland" is a 1989 landscape painting by Jeremy Henderson (1952-2009). The painting depicts a dramatic Irish sky with a moody, cloud-filled atmosphere. The scene is dominated by a vast, swirling sky, rendered in hues of blue and grey. The lower portion of the canvas showcases a quiet, serene landscape with a water body and trees in the foreground. This piece is reminiscent of Dutch landscape paintings of the 17th century, particularly the works of Meindert Hobbema. It evokes a sense of tranquility and contemplation, while hinting at the powerful forces of nature.
