The artist's love for the Dutch landscape is shown in the golden Dutch sky and its reflection in the canal below, where a silhouetted windmill which sits on its edge. These windmills serve to pump water from the polders – reclaimed lands that sit below sea level – to protect the inhabitants from floods.
