These photographs of the Van den Berg family and the Amstel River were glued into an album page at an unknown time by Hendrik Herman van den Berg. Look at this wonderful family portrait with the horse-drawn cart! I can almost imagine the artist behind the lens, carefully framing each shot, waiting for the perfect moment to capture these figures and scenes. What was it like to live and paint back then? Did the family know they were going to be in an artwork? The texture in the portraits invites you to explore the intimate life of the subject. It's like a quiet dialogue between the artist and the world. Artists are always in conversation, aren’t they?
