About the piece
Painted by Dirk Weeshoff around 1865, this atmospheric oil painting depicts the quintessential Dutch countryside under the tension of an approaching storm. The composition uses the dark silhouette of the windmill to anchor the viewer against a sweeping sky of shifting greys and breakthrough light, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing ephemeral weather effects and the vast scale of the horizon.
