About the piece

Created in 1902 by Christian Rohlfs, this landscape captures the Ruhr Valley near Hohensyburg through the lens of Neo-Impressionism. The artist employs a meticulous pointillist technique, using dabs of pure color to build a shimmering, atmospheric scene where the wide river reflects a dapple sky, framed by the lush, multi-colored vegetation of the riverbank.
