Immerse yourself in the serene charm of this mid-18th-century winter landscape by Johann Christian Vollerdt, a renowned German Old Master. Signed and dated "Vollerdt F 1763," this exquisite oil on canvas depicts villagers and travelers traversing the snowy terrain on horse-drawn sledges, framed by the stately presence of fortified mansions. Vollerdt’s masterful technique, influenced by the Dutch landscape tradition, shines through in the intricate detail, balanced composition, and evocative atmosphere of the scene. Elegantly framed and ready to hang, this painting is a timeless reflection of Vollerdt's artistry and a distinguished addition to any fine art collection.

Johann Heinrich Christian Vollerdt was an outstanding German landscape painter in the 18th century, and the present painting is one that testifies to his skill and the stylistic characteristics of his painting in the most beautiful way. His teacher was Johann Alexander Thiele. However, Thiele left fewer traces in Vollerdt's work than the study of Dutch landscape painting in the Dresden Picture Gallery. Of particular importance was the painting of Jan Griffier, whose riverscapes and Rhine views had a lasting influence on him.
There is no evidence that Vollerdt ever left his native Saxony, yet he often added southern motifs to his compositions. These ‘southern landscapes’ should therefore be understood as artistic quotations rather than real landscapes, as will be the case with Hackert.
