About the painting
This painting and its likely companion piece, V&A Museum Number 561-1870, date from the early nineteenth century but like many Dutch landscapes of this period, they were inspired by the landscape paintings of the 17th century Dutch Golden Age. The as yet unidentified artist has drawn on romantic Italianate landscapes by artists such as Jan Both. Like this painting, these were characterised by rocky, mountainous landscapes coloured with golden light. Although painting in the 19th century and inspired by the landscapes of the 17th Golden Age, the artist has depicted the figures in 18th century fashions.
