About this work

A painted seascape shows a large sailing vessel with a red pennant in the foreground on choppy water beneath a heavy, dark cloud bank. Smaller boats, including a rowboat with several figures at right, and more sailing vessels are scattered across the river, with a walled town visible on the far shore. This work, titled A river landscape with sailing vessels, is attributed to Jan van Goyen and dated 1653.
