About the piece
Painted around 1665 by Aert van der Neer, this Dutch Golden Age work masterfully depicts the interplay of light and shadow. The warm glow of a small fire contrasts with the cool, silvery light of the moon as it filters through heavy clouds, illuminating a tranquil river and distant town silhouette.
