A Landscape with a Couple, and a Spirit with a Lute is a 1911 unspecified by George William Russell, a Symbolism work, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with a couple standing together, surrounded by lush greenery. The woman is dressed in a flowing gown, while the man wears a suit and hat. A spirit, seemingly made of light, floats above them, playing a lute. The atmosphere is dreamy and ethereal, with soft colors and gentle brushstrokes. The spirit's lute appears to be emitting a soft glow, which illuminates the surrounding foliage. The couple seems lost in thought, oblivious to the spirit's presence. The overall mood of the painting is one of tranquility and contemplation.
