"A Steamship Anchored in a River" is a painting by the Dutch artist Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek (1778–1851), known for his marine art and atmospheric landscapes. This work is characteristic of Koekkoek's attention to detail and his fascination with the interplay of light and water. The painting depicts a steamship, a relatively modern innovation at the time, at anchor in a tranquil river setting, suggesting the juxtaposition of human technological progress with the timeless serenity of nature.

Koekkoek, a member of the prolific Koekkoek family of painters, was adept at capturing the mood of the Dutch waterways and the maritime activity that was central to the Netherlands' identity. His works often reflect the Dutch Golden Age tradition, with a focus on skilled composition, realistic portrayal of water, and the effects of light on the landscape. "A Steamship Anchored in a River" is no exception, as it showcases Koekkoek's ability to render the reflections on the water's surface and the delicate gradations of the sky.

The painting serves as a historical record of the era's maritime vessels and is an example of the transitional period in marine art where sail gave way to steam power. It is a testament to Koekkoek's mastery in marine painting and contributes to the understanding of the 19th-century Dutch maritime landscape. The artwork is significant for both its aesthetic qualities and its historical context, offering insight into the technological and cultural shifts of the time.
