Set of four landscapes in oil. Each one shows a different landscape, all with the presence of human figures, animals and buildings and clothing reminiscent of the fashion of northern Europe around the 18th century, or even before. In two of them there are buildings reminiscent of classical times (the bridge with the sculpture and that kind of arch), but as if they had been conceived by someone who had not seen these elements in reality. Although it may be thought that the landscapes are intended to represent Italy, since this country was the destination chosen by many young people on the Grand Tour (boom between the mid-17th century and the 1820s) Price per unit.
