About the piece
Dating from approximately 1750, this oil on canvas painting from the Städel Museum collection depicts a vast mountainous valley. In the foreground, figures rest near a covered wagon, while the middle ground reveals a pastoral scene of grazing livestock and rustic dwellings beneath a luminous, cloud-filled sky.
