About the piece
Painted around 1650 by Salomon van Ruysdael, this work is a quintessential example of Dutch Golden Age landscape painting. The composition is defined by its low horizon line, allowing the towering, luminous cloud formations to dominate the scene and reflect softly in the calm waters where fishermen and sailors navigate their vessels.
