Landscape with Peasants is a 1626 by Pieter de Molijn, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This black-and-white scene shows a group of people near a riverbank. A woman in a long dress stands with two children, while others work or rest by the water. Trees and a small boat in the background frame the scene. The artist used simple lines and shading to show light and depth, focusing on everyday life. Look up Baroque next to see how this style shaped art.
Pieter de Molijn (6 April 1595 in London – 23 March 1661 in Haarlem) was a Dutch Golden Age painter and engraver of English birth and Flemish descent.
