Dutch painter-etcher Johan Barthold Jongkind, dubbed the “father of Impressionism" by Edouard Manet, created this etching in 1867. Rotterdam is inscribed in the plate, but the title Moulins en Hollande was inscribed in the margin when the etching was published in a later state.

Jongkind trained in The Hague and moved to Paris in 1846, where he became a friend and mentor to Eugène Boudin, Claude Monet and Alfred Sisley.
