"A Winter Landscape with Figures on a Frozen Waterway in a Village" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Anthonie Beerstraten. Known for his winter scenes and landscapes, Beerstraten's work captures the essence of Dutch winters during the period, often depicting villagers engaging in daily activities against the backdrop of the ice-covered waterways that were typical of the Netherlands during the colder months.

This particular painting is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and the use of light and shadow, which was a hallmark of Dutch landscape painting at the time. The composition typically features figures skating, playing kolf (an early form of golf), or walking on the ice, with the frozen waterway leading the viewer's eye into the depth of the scene, towards the snow-covered village and the distant horizon. The architecture of the village, including houses and a church, would be rendered with precision, contributing to the narrative of daily life continuing despite the harsh winter conditions.

Beerstraten's use of color and his ability to convey the textures of snow and ice contribute to the painting's realism and atmospheric quality. The figures in the painting are often dressed in contemporary 17th-century attire, providing a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the time.

While Anthonie Beerstraten may not be as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, his winter landscapes are valued for their contribution to the genre and for their depiction of Dutch life during the Golden Age. "A Winter Landscape with Figures on a Frozen Waterway in a Village" remains an important work for understanding the cultural and artistic milieu of the period, as well as for its aesthetic qualities that continue to charm viewers with its timeless portrayal of winter's beauty and communal spirit.
