About the piece
Painted in 1714 by Franz Anton von Steinberg, this work captures the bustling activity of a communal fish harvest on Slovenia's Lake Cerknica. The composition features a dark, atmospheric sky over snowy hills, with dozens of figures engaged in labor across the frozen or receded waters, offering a rare glimpse into historical rural life and unique natural phenomena in an Old World style.
