About the piece
Painted in 1804 by Gerard van Nijmegen, this masterful landscape exemplifies the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime. A massive, leaning tree dominates the composition, its trunk illuminated by a break in the heavy storm clouds that loom over a rushing mountain river. The presence of two small figures in the lower left emphasizes the grand scale and untamed force of the natural world, rendered with sophisticated tonal contrast.
