Farmhouse with a Well

Cornelis Dusart, 1670 - 1704

When Adriaen van Ostade died, Cornelis Dusart inherited the studio’s contents from his master. This included drawings by Adriaen’s brother, Isaac. Dusart made this landscape after one of Isaac’s drawings. Dusart’s copy is less detailed and a little dull compared to the original. Whether Dusart drew these copies purely to practise or perhaps to pass them off as genuine Van Ostades is no longer known.
