About the piece
Created in 1868 by Dutch artist Bernardus Gerardus ten Berge, this oil on canvas captures a serene moment on the Baangracht in Alkmaar. The composition leads the eye along the reflective waters toward a distant bridge, beautifully framed by the deep greens of overhanging foliage and the warm, earthy tones of classic Dutch architecture.
