About the piece

Painted around 1680 by Wigerus Vitringa, this oil on panel captures a serene view of Alkmaar from the Zeglis. The composition is a masterful example of Dutch marine landscape painting, balancing the industrial silhouette of a windmill with the elegant movement of sailboats navigating the river under a luminous, expansive sky.
