Moonlit River Landscape | Aert van der Neer | 17th Century

This 17th century Dutch oil on canvas is a remarkable moonlit river landscape by the esteemed old master Aert van der Neer (1603-1677). The painting is an exquisite demonstration of Van der Neer's renowned ability to capture the tranquil essence and subtle illumination of nocturnal scenes. His work often depicts the serene Dutch countryside under the glow of the moon, and this piece is a quintessential representation of that theme. The painting's superior quality and condition affirm its status as a significant example of Van der Neer's nocturnes. It is housed in an early antique frame, richly adorned with gesso and gilding in a foliate design that complements the painting's age and subject matter. An attribution plaque on the verso of the frame confirms the artist's identity.
