About the piece
Created around 1657 by the Dutch master Aelbert Cuyp, this painting is a superlative example of the artist’s ability to capture the golden atmospheric light of late afternoon. The tranquil composition of resting cows against a vast sky and distant hills exemplifies the peaceful, idyllic charm of the 17th-century Dutch countryside.
