About Artwork: (About 1650-81) "Under a stormy sky, cattle are herded across a frail-looking bridge, the fast water threatening to destroy the trestles that hold it up. The river swings round to the left and tumbles away in a mist of foam down the hill between jagged rocks. Norwegian pine trees pierce the clouds and the branches of a birch toss in the wind. Between them a view of purple hills stretches away in the distance. The painting was once thought to have been by Jacob van Ruisdael, the leading Dutch landscape artist of the seventeenth century; it has since been attributed to his cousin, Jacob Salomonsz. Ruysdael, who imitated his style. Perhaps the slightly awkward placing of the mountain high above the trees on the right is a clue that the picture isn't likely to be by van Ruisdael, but the movement of the torrent and the atmospheric lighting still make a dramatic scene." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
