About the piece
Created by Jan Griffier I around 1710, this oil painting on copper exemplifies the Dutch and Flemish tradition of winter landscapes. The composition is teeming with activity, depicting figures in period dress enjoying winter sports on a frozen waterway against a vast, atmospheric sky and snow-dusted townscape.
