A Dutch windmill by the stream
1925
Ferdinand Brunner brings a classic Dutch landscape to life in this 1925 impressionist piece. A towering windmill dominates the horizon, its dark reflection dancing in the calm canal water below. In the foreground, a weathered wooden boat and a rustic sluice gate anchor the scene, suggesting a quiet pause in the daily work of the countryside. The artist uses loose, visible brushstrokes to capture the fleeting light of a cloudy sky, making the green pastures feel fresh and breezy.
