About the piece
Painted in 1627, this work by Moses van Uyttenbroeck is a masterful example of the Dutch mythological landscape tradition. It depicts the encounter between the nymph Salmacis and Hermaphroditus in a richly wooded setting, where gnarled, ancient trees and a serene pool create a sense of timeless drama typical of early 17th-century European art.
