Landscape with a Bridge

Francesco Zuccarelli

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a rural landscape with a bridge crossing a stream. Figures, including one with a horse, are on and near the bridge. Two buildings are visible in the distance surrounded by hills and trees. The brushstrokes are delicate and sketch-like, with a limited sepia and grey color palette. Trees flank the composition, adding depth.
