River Scene with Windmill and Boats, Evening

Niederländische Malerei 1645–1660, valószínűleg 1655–1660

This painting features a landscape with a body of water stretching towards the horizon. The horizon includes dark windmills and sailboats silhouetted against the sky, with reflections on the still, yellow water. The sky is cloudy, and the setting sun at the center of the painting casts a pale-yellow glow across the center of the scene, while the edges are in shadow. Closest to us, there is grassy terrain with a wide dirt path and two rowboats near the water. The color palette is muted with browns, grays, and yellow tones.
