Gaspard Dughet (1615-1675) – circle
Gaspard Dughet was the brother-in-law and pupil of Nicolas Poussin. Like Poussin, he worked in Rome. He is one of the most important classical landscape painters and had a great influence. At the foot of the rock, under a tree, a pair of lovers lie by the spring. The blonde woman is naked and lying on a white cloth, the man is only lightly clothed in the cloth and carries a spear. It could be a mythological pair of lovers, perhaps Venus and Adonis. The light falls on the lovers from above, modeling the texture and colors of the rock in the center of the image. The composition and type of tree refer this work to the work of Gaspard Dughet.
