About the piece

Adriaen van de Velde’s 1661 landscape showcases his mastery of atmosphere and light within the Dutch Golden Age tradition. The composition features a characteristically low horizon that gives prominence to a soaring, cloud-filled sky, while the foreground depicts resting livestock and figures by a stream near a thatched farmhouse.
