About this work

A broad river scene shows a cluster of brick houses with steep roofs and smoking chimneys on the left bank, shaded by large trees. Sailing boats and a small rowboat carrying several figures move across the calm water toward the right, where cows graze on the grassy shore. The sky is filled with soft, warmly lit clouds above a flat, distant horizon, all attributed to Jan van Goyen, dated 1650.
