About the piece
Painted around 1680 by Lieve Verschuier, this oil on panel work depicts the Rietdijkse Poort in Dordrecht. The composition balances the architectural strength of the city gate and windmill against the dynamic movement of the harbor's golden waves and the cloud-filled sky characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age.
