The painting portrays a panoramic view of the Maas River near the city of Dordrecht, Cuyp's hometown, showcasing a tranquil scene with boats and figures under a luminous sky, which reflects Cuyp's fascination with the effects of sunlight and his skill in rendering its reflections on water.

The composition of "The Maas at Dordrecht" is marked by a harmonious balance between sky, water, and land, with the vast expanse of the sky dominating the upper portion of the canvas, imbuing the scene with a sense of openness and tranquility. Cuyp's use of a warm, golden palette enhances the atmospheric effect, creating a glowing representation of the landscape that is both idyllic and meticulously detailed. The inclusion of local figures and vessels not only adds a sense of scale and life to the scene but also serves as a testament to the economic and maritime significance of the Maas River and the city of Dordrecht during the 17th century.
