About the piece
This 1660 oil painting by Jan van Goyen and Jeronymus van Diest II captures a serene view of the Merwede river near Dordrecht. The composition is characterized by its low horizon line, giving precedence to a magnificent, billowing sky that fills the majority of the frame—a hallmark of Dutch Golden Age landscape art.
