Landscape

Landscape presents a rural Dutch scene with a cluster of thatched farmhouses along a dirt road, flanked by a couple of gnarled trees on the left. A group of figures and a cart appear near a waterway on the right, beneath a broad sky filled with soft, pink-tinged clouds. The composition uses a low horizon and a restrained palette of browns, ochres, and blues, creating a subdued, tonal atmosphere characteristic of Jan van Goyen’s landscape work.
