Italian Landscape (Site d'Italie, Soleil Levant), about 1835. Additional Info: Hazy, golden morning light bathes this peaceful landscape where peasants sing and dance in a field. The picturesque ruins of a Classical temple loom in the background just beyond a distinctive towering umbrella pine, a tree native to Italy. To the left, past the cows tranquilly wading in the reflective water, a town appears in the distance.
