About the Item
Landscape With Fountain by Giuseppe Zais inspired by the Venetian artist's painting executed around 1765 and housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, which measures 132 x 80 cm. This Arcadian landscape was executed in the mid-1800s and is painted in oil on cardboard and brought back on board. It is in good condition within an antique carved and gilded wooden frame, reduced at the corners. It comes from a private Milanese collection.
The composition of the work features two figures on the edge of a river in the foreground, with a classical fountain in the center made of carved white marble that illuminates the painting and conveys the harmonious and serene atmosphere of the everyday life of the characters animating the scene, enclosed on the right by architectural elements. To the left of the painting is a landscape with architecture.
Giuseppe Zais (Forno di Canale 1709 – Treviso 1781) was one of the most famous Venetian landscape painters, known for his depictions of bucolic scenes featuring stylized figures of shepherds, flocks and washerwomen set in an idyllic rural landscape inspired by the Venetian countryside.
He trained in Venice, being able to observe the works of his illustrious predecessor Marco Ricci and was a contemporary of Francesco Zuccarelli from whom he drew the grace he achieved in his most refined works. Zais' style was distinguished by a much more rural depiction of the Arcadian landscape compared to his eighteenth-century colleagues; his compositions, although inspired by Rococo, are enveloped in a different sense of realism given by the use of more marked and brown tones and by a material and pasty application of color.

18th Century, Venetian School Italian Landscape Oversize Painting
Located in Milano, MI
Early 18th century Italian Venetian inland painting, a large size oil on canvas Baroque mountain landscape with stream, bridge, waterfall, wayfarers and a village in the background. The woodland is animated by figures, a caravan with horsemen fishermen. This monumental Italian Baroque landscape painting has a strong impact and an excellent composition balance, as it depicts in the center the luminous perspective of a fortified village, whose side wings consist of two mountain rocks with dark wooded vegetation crowded by characters, horsemen, paths, streams.On the left side, with respect to the observer, there is a path that runs alongside a stream that flows into a waterfall in the center of the composition. from a caravan of travelers on foot and on horseback traveling along it in both directions: going up the slope on the mountainous coast you can see a church and a village near the top. The right part of the painting depicts a more sparse and dry vegetation, painted in the chromatic tones of ocher, inside of which there are dead plant, dry branches and a smaller number of figures on the rugged mountain. The iconographic inspiration of this wooded representation seems to be in the large trunk of the withered conifer in a central position, which represents a dead tree, as a? reminder of the transience of everything in life, whose phases are summarized in the two mountainous coasts. In the background a village painted in light and soft blue colors, in stark contrast to the previous scene, seems to reassure and project us into a future season.
With a suggestive theatrical effect, more than 250 cm wide, this Baroque Italian painting comes from a private collection of Milan, the canvas has been lined and shows minor painting retouches at a horizontal seam of the canvas. It is unframed, it has just a wooden profile covering the canvas edge.
