About this work

A painted forest landscape shows a rushing waterfall tumbling over dark rocks into a churning stream, framed by tall trees. A small cottage sits on the rocky ledge, while a herd of cattle, sheep and goats rests on a path in the foreground beside a shepherd. Rolling hills and cultivated fields recede under a sky filled with clouds. This is The Cascade by Jacob Salomonsz van Ruysdael.
