The Windmill at Wijk bij Duurstede, c.1668-c.1670. Viewed from a low perspective, the mill contrasts majestically against the dark sky. The buildings further in the distance are the castle and St Maarten's church at Wijk bij Duurstede, a major city in the Golden Age. The river in the foreground is the Lek. This is the epitome of a Dutch landscape: flat country, lots of water, sky and windmills.
