Campo Vaccino in Rome is a 1653 oil by Johannes Lingelbach, a Dutch Golden Age work, depicting Market, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
This painting shows a bustling outdoor market scene, with a large crowd of people gathered in a courtyard. The market is filled with various goods and animals, and the atmosphere appears lively and chaotic. In the background, a large stone building dominates the scene, with a statue of a man and a horse on a pedestal in front of it. The sky above is a warm, sunny yellow, adding to the overall sense of energy and activity in the painting. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts of light and dark to create a sense of depth and volume, adds to the dynamic feel of the scene.
Johannes (or Johann) Lingelbach (1622 – 3 November 1674) was a Dutch Golden Age painter, associated with the second generation of Bambocciate, a group of genre painters working in Rome from 1625–1700.
