Landschap, waarin een vrouw, kind en hond als stoffage, uitgevoerd in gele was op zwart gelakt paneel 1766

"Landschap, waarin een vrouw, kind en hond als stoffage, uitgevoerd in gele was op zwart gelakt paneel" (Landscape, in which a woman, child and dog as staffage, executed in yellow wax on a black lacquered panel) is a unique artwork from 1766 by Dutch artist J. van Straten. It is a wax relief, a lesser-known art form. The three-dimensional figures of a woman, child, and dog stand out against the dark background, creating a sense of depth and texture. The artist's masterful use of wax allows for a highly detailed and realistic depiction of the figures and the surrounding landscape, making this a captivating example of 18th-century Dutch art.
