500027 Rocky, Wooded Landscape with a Dell and Weir, c.1782-83 (oil on canvas)
by Gainsborough, Thomas (1727-88); 89.5x110 (framed) 70.5x91 (unframed) cm; Cleveland Museum of Art, OH, USA; (add.info.: In a sketchy manner, Gainsborough convincingly singled out the various elements comprising this sweeping landscape--meadow, rocks, trees--by only slightly varying colors and brushstrokes. At the same time, however, a great sense of unity prevails.
Although the bulk of Gainsboroughs artistic out-put was portraits, he always insisted that landscape was his first love.

The painting depicts a picturesque scene of nature's beauty, skillfully captured on canvas using oil paints. Gainsborough's artistic genius is evident in the way he expertly portrays the different elements of this sweeping landscape. With his sketchy yet deliberate brushstrokes and subtle variations in color, he brings to life the meadow, rocks, and trees that make up this stunning composition. Despite these individual details, there is an undeniable sense of unity that permeates the entire artwork. While Gainsborough was renowned for his portraiture work, it was landscapes like these that truly held his heart.

A flock of sheep adds movement and life to the scene while enhancing its pastoral charm. The Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio proudly houses this remarkable painting as part of their collection.
