About the piece
Painted in 1649 by Jan van Goyen, this work is a quintessential example of the Dutch tonalist style. The composition masterfully balances a low horizon with a dramatic, cloud-filled sky, using a monochromatic palette to capture the hazy light reflecting off the river and the imposing stones of Duurstede Castle.
