Description:
Unknown artist
Untitled, 1700-1800
Oil on canvas
440mm x 640mm
The painting shows a landscape with distant hills, some trees, and what appears to be water in the middle distance. On the left is a ruin in an elaborate late-classical style, with fluted pillars, arches, statues and relief sculpture. Several peasants near the ruin are watching a chain of bare-legged dancers performing a rather exuberant dance in which the two men at either end appear to be waving strips of cloth.
