Rocky landscape is an oil by Allart van Everdingen, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This painting depicts a rocky landscape, with towering cliffs and trees set against a cloudy sky. In the foreground, a group of people are gathered near a body of water, while others are scattered throughout the landscape. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, with the contrast between light and dark drawing the viewer's eye through the scene. The rocky cliffs and trees are rendered in detail, giving the painting a sense of realism. The painting's style and composition suggest that it may have been influenced by the works of other Dutch landscape painters of the time.
