About the piece

Created in 1646 by Jan van Goyen, this work is a quintessential example of the Dutch Golden Age 'tonal' landscape. The composition utilizes a low horizon to emphasize the majestic, billowing clouds above the town of Rhenen, while delicate brushwork brings life to the figures traveling by carriage and the calm waters of the Rhine.
