Komponierte Landschaft mit Bauern und Esel is a 1763 oil by Johann Balthasar Bullinger, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
This painting is a landscape with a few people and animals in the foreground. There's a group of people sitting and standing on the left side, and a man on a horse is riding towards them. On the right side, there's a cliff with trees and bushes. The sky is yellowish, and the overall mood is calm. In the background, there are more trees and hills, and the sky is lighter towards the top. The painting has a warm color palette, with shades of brown, green, and yellow. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured look. The artist used chiaroscuro to create depth and contrast in the painting. You might want to look up chiaroscuro next.
