About the piece

Painted around 1665 by Jan van der Heyden, this oil painting depicts the historic Castle Nijenrode. Known for his pioneering architectural precision, Van der Heyden masterfully balances the solid geometry of the brick manor and stone gateway with a lush, atmospheric sky and delicately rendered figures in the foreground, characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age.
