Jacob Dirk van Herwerden (1806-1879) 'Segara Wedi with Gunung Bromo, east Java', signed and dated 1853 lower right, canvas. H. 51 cm. W. 69 cm. Provenance: Dutch private collection, probably formerly in the collection of Dr. Hofstede de Groot, an important art historian and collector. The Dutch physical anthropologist Dr. Herman F. C. ten Kate, son of the painter Herman Frederik Carel ten Kate, wrote (most probably) about this painting and the other painting by Herwerden in this auction: ‘What I know of Herwerden's work from my own experience is limited to only five paintings. One of the best is the 'Segara Wedi', on the south coast of Java: a beautiful quiet bay, surrounded by mountains. Both the terrain and the vegetation come into their own here, thanks to the drawing and the ‘spicy’ colour. Another is a mountain and river view that I bring home to East Java because of the fairly sparse vegetation on the slopes. Both pieces belong to Dr. Hofstede de Groot.' Source: Dr. Herman F.
