Landscape is a 1643 oil by Lucas van Uden, a Flemish Baroque painting work, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
This painting shows a serene landscape with a river flowing through it. On the left, trees stand tall on a hill, while on the right, a hill rises with trees and buildings on top. The sky is cloudy, and the overall mood is peaceful. In the foreground, a few figures are visible, but they are not the main focus of the painting. The artist has used oil paint to create a sense of depth and texture in the scene. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark, adds to the overall effect of the painting.
