Landscape by the Water

The painter presented the motif of a river, trees and a larger house in the background in unified colour tones, like in the painting Washerwomen by the Ljubljanica (NG S 3504). There are green tones in the sparkling water, a blue patch in the undergrowth, and the merging of a part of the tree-top with the cloudy sky. Like in many of his other pictures, he added the element of the red colour. The landscape can best be compared to the attempts by Jurij Šubic (The Park, NG S 576), but less to the works by Ivana Kobilca and Ferdo Vesel, since the elements in Petkovšek’s painting are rendered as flat, with only a few attempts at plastic modelling (stones by water centre lower at the most). The artist used cold bluish-green tones that he got acquainted with during his several months’ sojourn in Paris in 1884, when he also painted together with Šubic and met Vojtĕch Hynais.
