J. Van Buiksloot was a Dutch painter in the 1950’s. His works are quite rare and have appeared in some majorly prestigious Galleries. Little is written or known about the artist.

This original oil on canvas of Ice Skating in the Netherlands, as is evident from the flag of the Netherlands in the scene, evokes powerful memories of a simpler life in times past. Very much in the style of ‘folk art’ paintings of earlier times, but also retaining a post-impressionistic feel.

This particular painting was exhibited and purchased from the very prestigious (and now gone) Merrill Chase Gallery in Chicago, probably in the 1950’s or 60’s.

It has the original Merrill Chase Certificate of Authenticity attached to the rear (see photos).
