About the piece

Painted in 1898, this evocative work by Frits Thaulow captures the quiet atmosphere of a river in northern France. The composition focuses on the play of light across the rippling water, contrasted against the solid, earthy tones of the riverside architecture and the striking white of a horse at the bank.
