The Mill ☰ Rembrandt ☶ Canvas

The Mill (1648) by Rembrandt van Rijn is his largest landscape, and only recently discovered, in that it was misattributed to other artists for centuries. Prior to restoration in 1977, the painting was covered in heavy layers of varnish that obscured detail and gave it a dark, golden tone, as well as obstructed the investigation needed for proper attribution. It depicts a windmill under a stormy sky, overlooking a river where a man rows a boat, a woman is washing clothes, and a woman and child walk down a path to the bank. Trees on the far bank are reflected in the water, as the storm clouds transition to a bright blue sky. It is suggested that Rembrandt based this scene on his father’s mill outside Leiden, portraying it as a guardian, protecting the land and its people.

⿴ About Stretched Canvas

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
