About this work

You see a line of camels winding through jagged rocks under a pale sky. The artist didn’t sign it, so we don’t know who made it or what they were thinking. That makes the painting feel like a quiet postcard from someone who just wanted to show the desert light on fur and stone. To see more quiet travel scenes, visit the Rijksmuseum.
