Jan Hendrik Weissenbruch is one of the leading artists of the Hague School. In this sublime watercolour, one can see the delicate and fluid brushstrokes that characterize his work. The beautiful sky with its expressive clouds reveals the influence of Jacob van Ruisdael, whose paintings were exhibited at the Royal Picture Gallery Mauritshuis in The Hague and admired by Weissenbruch from a young age.
