Fantastic composition by Jan Both depicting a 17th century view of a sublime, highly detailed Italian landscape. Both was best known for his figures and landscape etchings. This is a fine example of his prints in very good condition for its age and with a nice provenance. My price of $349 is extremely reasonable and far below what one would be expected to pay for it in a gallery or at sale.

Please view my other prints listed on this week--we are adding a new bunch every Thursday. If not sold they will go into my store at a more realistic and higher buy-it-now price, or removed.
Biography:
Jan Both was a Dutch painter, draughtsman, and etcher, who made an important contribution to the development of Dutch Italianate landscape painting. His training is uncertain, although Abraham Bloemaert and Gerrit van Honthorst have been suggested as teachers. By 1638 Jan had joined his brother Andries in Rome where, a year later, he collaborated with Herman van Swanevelt and Claude Lorrain on a project for the Buen Retiro Palace in Madrid.

Certainly by 1646 Jan had returned to Utrecht, where he refined further his expansive, imaginary landscapes drenched with a Mediterranean golden light. In Landscape with Bandits Leading Prisoners (Boston, Museum of Fine Arts) the sandy road makes a sweeping diagonal from the left. Touches of realism in the down-to-earth figures and detailed vegetation of the foreground contrast with the idyllic golden distance. Occasionally Both peoples his landscapes with religious or mythological figures as in Judgement of Paris (London, National Gallery) where the figures were painted by a fellow Utrecht artist, Cornelis van Poelenburch. Jan\'s brother Andries (c.1612-41), who specialized in peasant scenes, died in Venice on their return to Utrecht.
