"A Barge with Flowers Moored at the Smitswater, The Hague" is a notable painting by the Dutch artist Pieter Florentius Nicolaas Jacobus Arntzenius, commonly known as Floris Arntzenius (1864–1925). Arntzenius was a painter, watercolorist, and etcher who belonged to the second generation of the Hague School, a group of artists who lived and worked in The Hague during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Hague School artists were known for their realistic depictions of Dutch landscapes, cityscapes, and daily life, often characterized by a subtle use of color and light, influenced by the French Impressionists.

This particular work captures a serene scene of a flower-laden barge moored at the Smitswater, a body of water in The Hague. The painting is distinguished by its vibrant portrayal of the flowers against the backdrop of the calm water, reflecting Arntzenius's skill in capturing the interplay of light and the atmospheric conditions of the Dutch landscape. The composition likely dates from the early 20th century, a period when Arntzenius was actively producing works that depicted the urban and rural scenery of The Hague and its environs.

Arntzenius's technique involved a delicate handling of paint and a focus on the effects of light, which can be seen in the way he renders the reflections on the water and the texture of the flowers. The artwork is a testament to the artist's fascination with everyday scenes and his ability to elevate them through his artistic vision.

"A Barge with Flowers Moored at the Smitswater, The Hague" is an example of Arntzenius's contribution to Dutch art history and the enduring legacy of the Hague School. The painting is not only significant for its aesthetic qualities but also as a historical document that offers a glimpse into the tranquil waterways of The Hague during a bygone era. The work is appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts for its charm, technical proficiency, and as a representation of Arntzenius's oeuvre, which often captured the quieter moments of Dutch life with great sensitivity and attention to detail.
