About the Item

Attributed to Giuseppe Zola (1672-1743) – "Landscape with Wooden Bridge and Figures" Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions (Flat): 190 x 301 cm Description: This monumental 18th-century landscape, attributed to Giuseppe Zola, exemplifies the artist’s grand, atmospheric depictions of nature with an emphasis on light, movement, and human presence within vast landscapes. A wooden bridge stretches across a gently flowing stream, serving as the focal point where figures engage in daily activities—travelers, peasants, and monks moving through the picturesque terrain. The golden hues of the sky contrast with the rich, shadowed foreground, creating a striking play of light and depth, characteristic of Zola’s dramatic Baroque-inspired landscapes. The distant mountains bathed in warm light evoke a sense of infinite space, while the dense foliage and rushing water in the foreground add dynamic movement. Zola’s technique reflects influences from Salvator Rosa and Claude Lorrain, blending Romanticism’s emotional intensity with Classical landscape ideals. This exceptionally large-scale work is a testament to 18th-century Italian landscape painting, designed for aristocratic or ecclesiastical interiors, where such grand compositions served as statements of refinement and intellectual engagement with nature. Provenance: Private collection. Condition: Well-preserved, with patina and minor signs of age enhancing its historical authenticity. Some areas of craquelure and gentle restoration, typical of works from this period. A rare and captivating Italian Baroque landscape, perfect for collectors of Old Master paintings and grand historical compositions.
