Original artwork description:

This vibrant oil painting captures the deep atmosphere of a Dutch canal at night, created en plein air (outdoors) in Nieuw Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The artist utilizes a dramatic palette dominated by rich, deep indigo and violet tones, immersing the viewer in the scene's tranquil darkness.
The central focus is a stationary canal boat, whose warmly lit windows and interior provide a strong contrast against the cool night sky and water. These yellow and orange lights dance and shimmer in the heavily textured water, rendered with energetic, impasto brushstrokes, creating luminous reflections that are the hallmark of a captivating nocturne.
Beyond the boat, the bank is defined by dark, silhouetted trees and the soft glow of distant streetlights. This piece beautifully explores the interplay of light and shadow, transforming a quiet, everyday scene into a study of color and emotion. It is a powerful, small-format work ideal for collectors who appreciate expressive, atmospheric night landscapes.
