The Rainbow Landscape (1640)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rainbow Landscape (1640) by Rubens

The Rainbow Landscape is a 1640 oil-on-panel painting by Peter Paul Rubens, now in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich.[1] One of the painter's last works and the third of three autograph works on the same subject, it mixes Italian and Flemish influences in a style reminiscent of Rubens' friend Jan Bruegel the Elder but with figures drawing on nymphs from the work of Annibale Carracci and Domenichino.[2]
