Tobias and the Angel after 1684

"Tobias and the Angel" (after 1684) by Pieter Mulier (il Cavaliere Tempesta) depicts a picturesque landscape with a biblical scene. In the foreground, the titular Tobias and the angel Raphael are walking through a stream, surrounded by sheep and a dog, while a figure in the background is fishing. The painting features a sweeping vista with a dramatic, stormy sky and dramatic rocky cliffs in the background. The overall effect is one of serenity and calm. "Tobias and the Angel" is a masterful example of the Italian landscape tradition and is held by The Art Institute of Chicago.
