About the artwork
[EN]
Johan van der Bilt travelled a lot, and on his travels and upon his return he painted the landscapes he encountered on the way. In this view on a house on Capri, he conveyed the bright sunshine of the South-Italian island. Cacti and several other plants grow outside and inside the garden wall, painted in his idiosyncratic dappled style.

The work is annotated on the lower right: 'J. van der Bilt 28 Capri'

[NL]
Johan van der Bilt reisde veel, en tijdens en na zijn reizen schilderde hij het landschap dat hij was tegengekomen. In dit zicht op een huis op Capri wist hij het felle zonlicht van het Zuid-Italiaanse eiland treffend te vangen. Buiten en binnen de tuinmuren groeien cactussen en andere planten, allemaal in de kenmerkende gestippelde stijl van Van der Bilt.

Het werk is rechtsonder gesigneerd en gedateerd: ‘J. van der Bilt 28 Capri’.
