About the piece
Painted by the preeminent Dutch landscapist Jacob van Ruisdael around 1660, this work captures the atmospheric grandeur of the Netherlands countryside. A vast sky filled with towering, sun-kissed clouds dominates the composition, casting moody shadows over a dense forest while illuminating a golden patch of grain in the middle ground.
