Rural life transfigured: Karel Dujardin's sensitivity in An Italian landscape with two peasants and horses near ruins
The scene reveals a delicate harmony between human figures and ancient remains, where golden light caresses the peasants' costumes and the horses' coats. The composition favors depth: ruins in the background, winding paths, and characters arranged diagonally to encourage the eye to travel. Earthy tones, ochres, and greens blend with bright touches, suggesting a peaceful and melancholic Mediterranean atmosphere. The brushwork, precise and soft, confers attentive realism while preserving an idealistic dimension characteristic of Karel Dujardin's art.

Karel Dujardin, master of Dutch landscape in Italy
Dutch painter of the 17th century, Karel Dujardin distinguished himself with his Italian landscapes populated by characters and animals, heirs of a Dutch tradition focused on observation and storytelling. Influenced by his stays in Italy, he merges northern clarity with the warmth of the peninsula, giving rise to scenes imbued with calm and precision. His works helped renew the pastoral genre by integrating classical ruins and daily life, offering a valuable testimony of artistic exchanges between schools. This reputation explains the interest in any art print of his compositions and their place in private collections.
