<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 3256606, member: 8267&quot;]I have searched for articles providing detailed information about Kruyder&#039;s working technique or detailed photographs of his paintings, (particularly views of the back which would show construction methods), but have not been able to find any for comparison with yours. For example, it could be helpful to see if he typically worked in such thin layers that the weave of the canvas was still visible, as shown in the detail you posted. The impasto technique is not diagnostic, as it was used by many artists.</p><p><br /></p><p>He does not appear to have been studied very much, which might actually make him more attractive for a forger.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps you could try contacting a museum which has examples of Kruyder&#039;s work in their collection, and speak to a Curator familiar with his style and technique. The Frans Hals Museum in Haarlem, Netherlands, seems to have a number of his works.</p><p><a href="https://www.franshalsmuseum.nl/en/event/herman-kruyder/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.franshalsmuseum.nl/en/event/herman-kruyder/" rel="nofollow">https://www.franshalsmuseum.nl/en/event/herman-kruyder/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
