About the piece
Painted around 1880 by Jacob Maris, a leading figure of the Hague School, this work illustrates the Dutch landscape's atmospheric character. The composition centers on a massive windmill, rendered with loose, expressive brushwork that emphasizes the texture of stone and the movement of a heavy, light-streaked sky above a quiet waterway.
