Francesco Cozza's "Landscape with the Angel Appearing to Hagar and Ismael" (1664) depicts a biblical story. An angel appears to Hagar and Ishmael, who are lost and dying of thirst in the wilderness. The painting is characterized by a lush, detailed landscape, typical of the 17th century Italian Baroque style. The artist utilizes light and shadow to highlight the dramatic interaction between the angel and Hagar, while the background scenery creates a sense of depth and solitude. The painting is now in the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen.
