Classical landscape before 1669

This red chalk drawing, "Classical landscape," was created by the Italian Baroque artist Gaspard Dughet before 1669. It depicts a picturesque Italian landscape with a village nestled in the hills, featuring a large tree and a winding path. The detailed depiction of foliage and the atmospheric perspective create a sense of depth and realism. This drawing is a prime example of Dughet's mastery of landscape painting, known for his attention to detail and dramatic compositions.
