About the piece
Painted around 1660 by Adriaen van de Velde, this Dutch Golden Age work depicts a noble carriage and its retinue on the beach at Scheveningen. The composition masterfully balances the detailed human activity in the foreground with a vast, luminous sky, capturing the atmospheric light and space characteristic of the period's coastal landscapes.
