Pastoral landscape is a 1636 oil by Claude Lorrain, held at Art Gallery of New South Wales.
The painting depicts a serene landscape with a few trees, a body of water, and a distant village. In the foreground, a man sits on the ground, playing a flute, while a group of goats graze nearby. The scene is set against a backdrop of rolling hills and a cloudy sky. The artist's use of warm colors and soft brushstrokes creates a sense of tranquility, inviting the viewer to step into the peaceful world of the painting. The composition is balanced, with the trees and the man creating a sense of depth and perspective.
