About the piece
Painted around 1650 by Aert van der Neer, this evocative work showcases the artist's expertise in depicting nocturnal light. The full moon, positioned centrally, casts a luminous glow over a serene river, while the surrounding trees, small vessels, and distant village architecture are rendered in deep, moody tones that create a sense of profound stillness.
