About the piece

Painted in 1886, this atmospheric work by Norwegian artist Frits Thaulow depicts a quiet canal in the Dutch city of Dordrecht. Thaulow’s masterful brushwork brings the rippling water and soft reflections to life, while the warm tones of the historic architecture and the expansive, textured sky create a sense of tranquil old-world charm.
