Aelbert Cuyp has employed the same palette of colours and the same camouflage patterns to depict the crumbling walls as he used for the autumnal woods and the hillside behind. The reflections in the still waters of the lake add to the impression that the stone towers and tumbledown ramparts are merging into their surroundings.\n\nThe scene may have had some resonance to a contemporary audience who were likely to have recognised the castle. It is the castle of Ubbergen, near Nijmegen in the Dutch Province of Gelderland. The fourteenth-century building was ruined in 1582 during the Spanish occupation of the Netherlands and as such was seen as a symbol of national independence. This painting isn’t dated but was probably made in 1655, less than a decade after the Treaty of Münster (1648), when the Dutch finally won independence from Spain.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/aelbert-cuyp-ubbergen-castle\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - Ubbergen Castle\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aelbert Cuyp","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509364691187,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (12 5\/8\" x 21 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509364723955,"sku":null,"price":597.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (13 3\/4\" x 23 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509364756723,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (16 3\/4\" x 28 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509364789491,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (20 1\/2\" x 34 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509364822259,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (26 1\/2\" x 45 1\/8\")","offer_id":50509364855027,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (31 7\/8\" x 54 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509364887795,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (37 1\/2\" x 63 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509364920563,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (45\" x 76 5\/8\")","offer_id":50509364953331,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/UbbergenCastle.jpg?v=1789450512","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/ubbergen-castle-ngal45","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
