In his landscapes of the northern Netherlands, Gerrie Wachtmeester is more interested in recreating a certain atmosphere than a particular place.

Wachtmeester’s painting of this country estate is part reality, part childhood memories and dreams. Using trees to create a pattern of vertical and diagonal lines, he creates a shadow world around it, under a brooding sky.
