About the piece
Painted in 1870 by Jacob Maris, a leading figure of the Hague School, this work depicts a serene moment of daily life on a Dutch waterway. A ferry boat carrying passengers and cows occupies the mid-ground, reflected in the glassy surface of the river against a backdrop of soft, atmospheric light and the muted, earthy tones characteristic of the period's realism.
