Jacob van Ruisdael completed this view of dunes near his hometown of Haarlem. The rolling sandy hills stretch beneath dramatic clouds. Ruisdael transformed ordinary Dutch scenery into poetic compositions.
His dune landscapes capture the flat land and big skies that define the Netherlands. This work hangs at the Louvre in Paris.
