About the piece
Painted around 1620 by Charles Cornelisz. de Hooch, this landscape captures the romantic allure of classical antiquity characteristic of the Dutch Italianate style. A weathered circular temple stands as a silent sentinel over an expansive river valley, where shepherds and their herds move through the soft, atmospheric light of the countryside.
