Description: | This sunlit pastoral landscape is ascribed to a follower of the Dutch painter Nicolaes Berchem, famous for his Italianate landscapes. His work was widely imitated and copied during his lifetime. In the shadowy foreground a man, with hat, walking stick and back turned to the viewer, looks into the mountainous landscape. High rocks and trees serve as backdrop to a picturesque group in the left foreground. On the right, a man leads cattle and goats and a woman riding a donkey, whilst a peasant with two oxen ploughs the field in the middle-ground. | Subjects: | landscape (Italy) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Berchem, Nicolaes (Dutch painter, printmaker, and draftsman, 1620-1683) Æ Attributed to manner of Previously attributed to school of Zuccarelli, Franco (Italian painter, 1702-1788) Previously attributed to imitator of Pynacker, Adam (Dutch painter and printmaker, ca. 1620-1673) Previously attributed to Morland, George (British painter, 1763-1804) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8740... | Go to resource |
