A River Estuary

Jan van Goyen, 1639

A rough sea under a stormy sky is portrayed. In the foreground is a landing-stage with three men and, nearby, a small boat with two men. Further away we see a sailing boat, a ship in full sail and, in the distance, other boats, off a strip of shore with houses.
