Landscape with country dance by Claude Lorrain

Landscape with country dance by Claude Lorrain

This picture refers to the period of the most intense artistic work of Lorrain, who in general formed his own artistic system by that time and created his own version of the classic “ideal” landscape.

Everything here is absolutely Lorraine – architectural forms; soft chiaroscuro; diffused lighting, in which objects “dissolve” on the horizon; the prevalence, relatively speaking, of the “tree” over the “man”; a feeling of beautiful proportion.
