Painting Description
"A Pair of Pastoral Roman Landscapes with a Shepherd Boy and a Shepherd Girl" is a set of two paintings by the Dutch Golden Age artist Simon van der Does. These works are notable for their depiction of idyllic landscapes that reflect the influence of Italianate scenery, which was popular among Dutch artists who had traveled to Italy and were inspired by its light and terrain. Van der Does, known for his pastoral scenes, often incorporated shepherds and livestock into his compositions, evoking a sense of harmony between humans and nature.
The paintings, likely created in the late 17th century, each feature a young shepherd set against the backdrop of the Roman countryside. One painting depicts a shepherd boy, while the other shows a shepherd girl, both engaged in the pastoral tradition of tending to their flocks. These works exemplify the pastoral genre, which romanticizes rural life and the simplicity of living close to nature, a theme that resonated with urban collectors in the Dutch Republic during the period.
Simon van der Does (1653–1717) was a student of the renowned landscape painter Nicolaes Berchem, and his style bears the hallmarks of his teacher's influence, with a particular emphasis on the warm, golden light and the soft, rolling hills typical of the Italian landscape. The "Pair of Pastoral Roman Landscapes" is characteristic of van der Does' oeuvre, showcasing his skill in rendering the tranquil beauty of the countryside and the serene activities of its inhabitants.
