A Wooded Landscape with Figures by a House is a 1752 oil by Thomas Gainsborough, a Rococo painting work, held at Clark Art Institute.
This painting shows a serene landscape with a house and trees. The house is small and red, with a white door and windows. It's surrounded by tall trees that block most of the sunlight, casting dappled shadows on the ground. In the background, there are more trees and a cloudy sky. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich, textured look. The colors are muted, with lots of greens and browns. The overall effect is peaceful and calming.
