"Two Undershot Water-mills With Men Opening A Sluice" is a notable painting by the renowned Dutch Golden Age artist Jacob van Ruisdael. Created around 1650-1655, this work exemplifies Ruisdael's masterful ability to capture the essence of the Dutch landscape with meticulous detail and dramatic composition. The painting depicts a serene yet dynamic scene of two water-mills powered by undershot wheels, a common sight in the Netherlands during the 17th century. The mills are set amidst a lush, verdant landscape, with a sluice being opened by two men, allowing water to flow and power the mills.

Ruisdael's use of light and shadow in this painting is particularly striking, as it enhances the textures of the wooden structures, the flowing water, and the surrounding foliage. The sky, filled with billowing clouds, adds a sense of depth and movement to the composition, creating a harmonious balance between the natural and man-made elements. This painting not only showcases Ruisdael's technical prowess but also reflects the economic and social importance of water-mills in the Dutch Republic, where they were essential for various industries, including grain milling and land drainage.

The painting is a testament to Ruisdael's keen observation skills and his ability to infuse everyday scenes with a sense of grandeur and significance. His works, including "Two Undershot Water-mills With Men Opening A Sluice," have been celebrated for their contribution to landscape painting and their influence on subsequent generations of artists. Today, this painting is held in high regard and is part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to be admired by art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
