About the piece

Painted in 1690 by Abraham Storck, this work captures the bustling activity of the IJ, the waterfront of Amsterdam. Several vessels, including a large Dutch frigate and smaller sailing boats flying Dutch flags, navigate the choppy waters beneath an expansive, atmospheric sky that adds a sense of grandeur to the scene.
