About the piece
This 1690 oil painting, associated with the circle of Nicolas Poussin, exemplifies the 'heroic landscape' style of the Baroque era. The composition leads the eye from three contemplative monks in the shaded foreground through a densely wooded valley to a sun-lit town nestled among rocky outcrops, all set against a backdrop of towering mountains and a dramatic sky.
