About the piece

Painted around 1650 by Adam Pynacker, this work is a superb example of the Dutch Italianate style. The composition centers on a tall, luminous tree that divides the deep shadows of the forest floor from a sweeping, atmospheric vista. In the foreground, a dynamic encounter between an enraged ox and a small dog adds a sense of narrative tension to the grand landscape.
