Landscape near Saint-Ange is a 1860 oil by Gerard Bilders, a Barbizon school work, held at Kröller-Müller Museum.
This painting shows a serene landscape with a grassy hill in the foreground, dotted with large rocks. In the background, a dense thicket of trees rises, with a few branches stretching out towards the viewer. The sky above is a soft, pale yellow. The artist has used oil paint to bring this scene to life, with visible brushstrokes that add texture to the image. The colors are muted, with shades of green and brown dominating the palette.
