We look across a vast landscape. In the middle of the scene, a washerwoman walks along a dirt track, her clothing bright in the sun. Beyond her, further up the mountain, a shepherd drives his flock onward; in the foreground, two pairs of figures chat. This large-scale picture was probably painted by Crescenzio Onofri, a pupil of the landscape artist Dughet. The artist has incorporated trees to frame the scene, and a winding path and sweeping valley to lead our eye through the composition. Warm browns in the foreground gradually change to cool blues and greys in the mountains, creating a sense of distance. Onofri moved from Rome to Florence in the 1690s. He collaborated with others artists, who added figures to his landscapes; Francesco Petrucci probably worked on these ones.
