About the piece
Painted around 1641 by Aert van der Neer, this evocative oil on canvas exemplifies the Dutch Golden Age's fascination with light and nature. The composition features a luminous moon breaking through a heavy sky, its light shimmering across the river while shadowy figures of woodcutters and towering trees anchor the dark foreground.
