Landscapes is a 1604 unspecified by Unkoku Tōyo, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows two tall, narrow scenes of nature side by side. On the left, a rocky shore meets a calm body of water with a few trees and a small building. On the right, a boat floats near a twisted tree and jagged rocks, with distant hills in the background. The colors are mostly soft grays, browns, and blues, with a little gold trim at the top and bottom. The boat on the right is the only sign of life in these quiet landscapes. The artist used simple lines and gentle shading to create a peaceful, almost dreamy mood. Look up *Baroque* next to see how this style’s drama and movement compare to these calm scenes.
