About the piece

Attributed to the workshop of Jan de Momper, this mid-17th-century oil painting captures a serene yet melancholy scene of ancient stone ruins reflected in quiet waters. The composition leads the eye from the small figures in the foreground toward the imposing architectural remains and the ethereal, mountain-rimmed horizon under a heavy sky.
