Winter view with Dutch ice skiffs. Ice sailing, sledges, and skaters on the frozen Zaan, with windmills and houses of Koog aan de Zaan in the background, c. 1775. The windmills from left to right are: the oil mill De Reus, the white lead mill De Rob, the gristmill De Pelikaan, and the oil mill De Christoffel or Broodkorf.
