바람 부는 날 by Jan van Goyen, 1651

Jan van Goyen was a master of the Dutch Baroque who created over a thousand landscapes, yet he ironically died in debt after bad investments in tulips and real estate! In this 1651 scene, he captures a blustery afternoon on a river, letting the dramatic sky dominate two-thirds of the canvas. You can almost feel the wind whipping the sail of the boat on the right and rustling the trees on the bank. Down in the foreground, a ferry is busy loading cattle and passengers, showcasing the artist's talent for blending dramatic weather with everyday life using his signature earthy, tonal palette.
