About the piece
Painted in 1645 by Jan van Goyen, this work exemplifies the Dutch 'tonal' style of landscape painting. The composition centers on a crumbling brick tower overlooking a calm waterway, where sailboats and distant dwellings are rendered in a harmonious palette of ochre, grey, and umber typical of the mid-17th century.
