This painting depicting a waterfall in a landscape reflects the very popular style of seventeenth century mountain landscapes – an artistic style that foregrounds the splendour of nature.

In this composition, the artist has meticulously captured the details of the waterfall, creating a lively and immersive atmosphere. The plays of light and shadow underline the textures and contours of the natural elements, imbuing the work with an impression of depth and realism.
