An Imaginary View of Nijenrode Castle and the Sacristy of Utrecht Cathedral
Artist: Jan van der Heyden (Dutch, 1637 - 1712)
Original Dimensions: 20 7/8" x 16 1/4"
Location: National Gallery of Art, London
About Artwork: (Probably 1665-70) "Although he liked to paint scenes that looked highly realistic, Jan van der Heyden made adjustments to what he saw, and often created entirely imaginary scenes. Sometimes he would compose fantasy buildings, combining elements from more than one structure. Here his approach is slightly different. He has taken taken two buildings which were in reality about seven miles apart and placed them much closer together. In the foreground is the sacristy of Utrecht Cathedral. Just across the cobbled street is Nijenrode Castle, which is located at Breukelen, well outside the city. Both buildings still exist but have been significantly altered since this painting was made. However, we know from other paintings that van der Heyden probably made small changes to each of them – for example, in reality the sacristy was built of stone, not of brick." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
