About the piece

Painted around 1640 by Aert van der Neer, a master of Dutch landscape lighting, this work captures a serene river scene at dusk. The sky is ablaze with warm ambers and soft pinks, casting deep shadows over the water where small boats and figures are seen against the horizon of a distant church tower.
