Early 19th Century Pair Of Landscapes In Oil On Panel

Splendid pair of Roman school oil paintings depicting rural landscapes. The two elegant paintings depict two scenes from the Roman countryside. One painting features a large oak tree in the center, dominating the landscape covered by a stormy sky. It is surrounded by small figures immersed in bucolic scenes in the countryside. In the other painting, the scene is dominated by a waterfall, while lower down is a genre scene with common women busy with washerwomen or observing two men-at-arms on horseback. The background features a countryside landscape dotted with architecture. The two paintings feature contemporary Florentine frames, hand-carved and gilded, which further enhance the softness of the landscapes and the detail of the figures depicted. Roman school, early 19th century.
