Description: | This painting is of the Campagna landscape. The landscape around Rome was a particular inspiration to Dutch Italianate artists throughout the seventeenth century. Following in the tradition of Poussin, Dughet placed three figures in the foreground of the landscape that bring interest to the view. Scenes of the Italian landscape were very popular with clients, often fetching far more than paintings of landscapes nearer to home. | Subjects: | landscape (Campagna); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Dughet, Gaspard (French landscape painter, 1615-1675, active in Italy) Æ Attributed to | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8906... | Go to resource |
