Calvin University Center Art Gallery

The painting depicts a serene landscape with a winding path leading through a mountainous terrain, where travelers on horseback are journeying under the shade of tall, lush trees. In the background, expansive hills stretch towards a gentle horizon, with a river cutting through the valley, reflecting the soft glow of the sky.
