About the piece
Painted in 1631 by Pieter Post, this oil on panel work depicts the bleaching fields near Haarlem, a characteristic subject of Dutch Golden Age art. The composition is defined by a characteristic low horizon line that gives way to a monumental sky filled with soft, rolling clouds, creating a sense of quiet grandeur and peace in a domestic setting.
