About the piece
Painted around 1810 by Georges Michel, this evocative work captures the raw power of nature. Influenced by the Dutch masters, Michel uses a limited, earth-toned palette and vigorous brushwork to create a scene of intense mood and drama. The stark silhouette of the windmill against the brooding sky serves as a timeless symbol of the rural European landscape.
