Dutch landscape. Golden age of holland. A wide river with various river craft, which stretches across the width of the canvas and flows to meet the horizon. In the far right distance, a village can be seen through a gentle mist, while on the wooded bank to the left, a cart filled with singing and shouting peasants stands before a row of cottages. As they wave to the boatload of passengers approaching the shore, a ferryboat loaded with cattle pushes off. Further upstream, a boat in full sail carries its passengers toward the distant hamlet with its church steeple. Object Type: painting. Genre: landscape painting. Date: 1656. Place of creation: Netherlands. Medium: oil on canvas. Collection: Minneapolis Institute of Art. Salomon van Ruysdael - River Landscape with a Ferry - 45.9 - Minneapolis Institute of Arts
