About the piece

Painted in 1887 by Paul Gabriël, a leading figure of the Hague School, this work illustrates the flat, watery expanse of the Dutch countryside. A steam train puffs along the horizon, contrasted with the traditional landscape of canals and telegraph lines, all rendered in a sophisticated palette of greys, greens, and silvers.
