Landscape with a Battle between Two Rams
Baroque
1640
173.0 x 248.0 cm
This animated scene stands in opposition to the grand, classical tradition represented by Poussin, Claude, and Bourdon. The picture is ascribed to Jan Miel, who moved to Rome in the 1630s. He specialized in scenes of contemporary life referred to as bambocciate, after the nickname of the creator of the genre, Pieter van Laer. Although Miel"s work stands in contrast to the premise of classical landscapes, he is known to have collaborated with Gaspard Dughet and it has been suggested that the landscape in this picture was painted by Dughet with the figures added by Miel.
Jan Miel (1599 – 1663)
Jan Miel (1599-1664) var en flamländsk målare verksam i Italien, känd för sina 'bamboccianti'-genrebilder av romarlivet och senare klassicerande historiemålningar. Hovmålare åt Karl Emanuel II, hertig av Savojen.
