Flemish School of the 17th Century - Pastoral Scene - Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 100 x 78 cm. A pastoral scene with human and animal figures in a rural setting is presented. The idyllic atmosphere and the use of light and shadow in the composition are characteristic of the Flemish style of the 17th century, where scenes of country life were popular, reflecting both everyday life and a bucolic ideal. The detailed depiction of the figures and the landscape shows the technical skill of the Flemish school, which fused realism with a certain theatricality.
