About the piece

Created by Nándor Katona around 1905, this evocative work captures the stillness of a riverbank at dusk. The artist uses a restrained palette of deep greens, browns, and soft greys to depict the water's surface as it reflects the heavy sky, with the rocky foreground and distant mountain peaks creating a sense of quiet grandeur typical of European landscape traditions.
