About the piece

Painted in 1786 by Christian Georg Schütz, this work captures the architectural splendor of Aschaffenburg, Germany. The composition is anchored by the imposing red sandstone Johannisburg Palace on the left, while the river Main flows gracefully through the foreground, populated by working vessels and figures that lend a sense of tranquil activity to the scene.
