About the piece
Painted around 1650 by the Dutch master Jan van de Cappelle, this work depicts 'Admiraalszeilen', a traditional celebratory water festival. The composition is defined by its low horizon line and towering, luminous sky, perfectly capturing the tranquil light and misty atmosphere characteristic of Dutch Golden Age marine painting.
