About the piece

Painted around 1850 by Charles Leickert, this evocative oil painting depicts a winter evening on the IJ river near Amsterdam. The composition is bathed in a soft, golden light that catches the clouds and reflects off the ice, where local residents go about their daily lives amidst rustic dwellings and moored vessels.
