About the piece

Created around 1900 by Josef Schusser, this oil on cardboard work is a beautiful example of European Impressionism. The artist uses loose, expressive brushstrokes and a muted palette of earthy greens and deep browns to capture a quiet, atmospheric moment on the water, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow.
