Südliche Landschaft mit Vesuv is a 1820 oil by Ludwig Philipp Strack, held at Kunsthistorisches Museum.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with a group of people and animals in the foreground. The scene is set in a hilly area with trees and a small stream running through it. In the background, there are mountains and a body of water, possibly a lake or sea. The painting features a mix of warm and cool colors, with the sky and water depicted in shades of blue and the hills and trees in shades of green and brown. The figures in the foreground are dressed in simple clothing and appear to be engaged in everyday activities. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.
