Rembrandt
Landscape with a Stone Bridge
1638
Rembrandt painted only a few landscapes, mostly imaginary mountain scenes.
Although The Stone Bridge is composed of elements studied from reality, it probably does not represent a specific place.
The painting’s magical quality derives from its dramatic illumination: a beam of sunlight breaks through the clouds, making the approaching storm seem twice as menacing.
