In an Impressionist style with increased impasto brushstrokes, the scene is a reinterpretation of 'The View of Dordrecht.' The famous Dutch town of Dordrecht is depicted from the river Merwede, with the skyline of the town, its church towers, and traditional buildings softly outlined in the distance. The water of the river flows calmly, reflecting the golden hues of a late afternoon sky, painted with thick, textured impasto strokes. Sailboats and ships rest along the river, their sails catching the gentle breeze, rendered with bold, layered strokes. The clouds in the sky are painted with rich, textured brushstrokes, blending into warm tones of orange and pink. The increased impasto adds depth and texture to the scene, capturing the tranquility and harmony of the moment in a tactile, expressive style.
