Landscape with a Peasant Couple and Baby is a 1643 by Lucas van Uden, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet countryside scene with a big tree on the left and a small village in the background. In the foreground, two people sit on the grass, one holding a baby. The lines are loose and quick, almost like a hurried sketch. The artist focused on the shapes of trees and buildings, leaving out small details. The writing at the top names Lucas van Uden and another person, but we don’t know what it means yet. If you like this style, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art for more works by Lucas van Uden.
Lucas van Uden (18 October 1595 – 4 November 1672) was a leading Flemish landscape painter, draughtsman and engraver, who lived and worked in Antwerp.
