About the piece
Created in 1656 by Nicolaes Pieterszoon Berchem, this Dutch Golden Age masterpiece exemplifies the 'Italianate' landscape style popular in the 17th century. The scene captures the warm, golden light of the Mediterranean countryside, featuring a prominent stone tower overlooking a rocky stream and waterfall where women in rustic dress tend to their livestock.
