Noon-Day Rest - painted by Cuyp, 1856. Engraving of a painting. 'His works, which are purely local in character, show that his imagination never travelled beyond the sphere of his personal daily observation; and his delight and pride consisted in studying the ever-changing atmospheric effects which traversed the broad expanse of his native low lands...But though Cuyp's atmospheres were unapproachable, they did not comprise his whole merit; he devoted himself as a passion to every object in nature, and to all with almost equal success. There is scarcely a variety of domestic animal creation - cows, oxen, sheep, horses, &c.- which he has not produced with a life-like reality quite astonishing; and his landscapes, introducing grass-lands, water, trees, fruits, with various accessories, all speak eminently of the modesty of nature'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
