About the piece

Painted in 1909 by Hobbe Smith, this impressionist work captures the shifting light and movement of the Rhine river. The composition is anchored by the tall Cuneratoren tower, while sailboats with warm-toned sails glide across the reflective water beneath a vast, expressive sky, demonstrating the artist's mastery of atmospheric perspective.
