Marco Ricci (Belluno 1676 - Venice 1730)
Landscape with Watercourse and Shepherds

18th 18th Century

About the Item

Oil on Canvas. In a verdant hilly countryside, through which a stream flows, some shepherds sit chirping in the shade of trees as they check on the watering flock. Dense gloomy clouds thicken in the sky. The style harks back to the production of Marco Ricci, a Bellunese painter established for his undoubted talent for naturalistic and architectural depiction. His landscapes, still with a distinctly seventeenth-century flavor, are already lit by powerful and emotive lights, dry and twisted trees, rocks and towers, cumuliform clouds suddenly breaking into vague flashes of blue, a complex repertoire that transfigures nature into a dramatic and restless representation. He became a reference for several other artists contemporary with him, who took up his style, as in this 'work. Restored and re-tinted, the painting is presented in a styled frame.
