Beautiful watercolour of the Tijgersgracht in Batavia (present day Jakarta), by one of the most important Dutch painters from the Romantic period. Cornelis Springer (1817-1891) is especially known for his cityscapes. He was a prolific artist, as more than 650 drawings and paintings by his hand are known. The vast majority of them depict towns and cities in the Netherlands and Germany, so the present watercolour of Batavia is unique in his oeuvre.Batavia, in the Dutch East Indies, was founded in 1619, and became the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). It had around 15 canals, but the Tijgersgracht was considered its most important and most beautiful. It ran from the Amsterdam Gate, near Castle Batavia, to the Groote Rivier, and was praised by poets and world travellers. Many of the most prominent families of the city lived along it, including the famous explorer Abel Tasman (1603-1659). However, due to a malaria outbreak and poor water quality, Old Batavia was abandoned at the end of the 18th century in favour of Weltevreden, and in 1810 the Tijgersgracht was filled in. As such, Springer has not seen it in person. He most likely based the present work on another image, possibly an engraving. However, it is not a direct copy of any of the engravings of the Tijgersgracht we have found. He likely only used his example to create a recognisable view of the location, but the composition, colour scheme, as well as the figures and boats are his own.Springer was born in Amsterdam, where he also lived for most of his life. His artistic talent was quickly recognised, and his paintings were already exhibited when he was just 17. He originally started with landscapes, but soon moved to cityscapes, which he excelled in. As a Romantic painter, he was primarily interested in 17th- and 18th-century buildings, and travelled throughout the Netherlands and Germany to paint the historical town centres. As he was trained in architectural drawing, the architectural elements in his work are often highly detailed and clearly recognisable. He was also interested in people and often included groups of them engaged in various activities, giving his scenes a lively and authentic appearance. The watercolour has been mounted onto thick greyboard, with the label from the framing company (Tardif) mounted on the back. The watercolour is very slightly scuffed around the edges, the greyboard backing is damaged around the edges from the nails holding the painting in the frame, the frame shows some signs of wear, especially on the back. Otherwise in very good condition.l Scheen, Lexicon Nederlandse beeldende kunstenaars 1750-1950, pp. 379-380; Thieme/Becker 31, pp. 410-411. In a (near) contemporary gold-coloured wooden frame.
