River Landscape near Nijmegen with Riders Watering their Horses — Aelbert Cuyp

Aelbert Cuyp. Painted c. 1653 - 1657.

This is a panoramic, sun-drenched river landscape – somewhat hazy in the distance – with sketchily drawn clouds. Two Dutch officers halt at the river, and water their horses next to a herder and his resting cattle. This idyllic scene does not unfold in Italy, but along the Waal between Nijmegen and Cleves, where Cuyp made landscape drawings that he took back to his workshop in Dordrecht.

From the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Currently on display in Gallery of Honour, Main building.
