Dutch Riverscape is a 1874 by Vicomte Lepic Ludovic Napoléon, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting depicts a serene river scene, with a large boat in the foreground and a smaller boat in the background. The river stretches across the width of the canvas, with a grassy bank on the right side. The sky above is cloudy, with a few birds flying overhead. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the depiction of the boats and the surrounding landscape. The use of color is muted, with shades of brown and gray dominating the palette. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artists who explored the Impressionism movement.
