About the piece
Created in 1862 by Cornelis Springer, this oil on panel work is a masterful example of Dutch architectural realism. It depicts the quiet harbor of Hasselt, Overijssel, where figures in period dress go about their day amidst traditional brick gables and lush trees. Springer’s handle on atmospheric light and historical detail brings a sense of grounded permanence to the scene.
