"Tobias and the Angel" is a notable painting by the French Baroque artist Claude Lorrain (also known as Claude Gellée or simply Claude), who was active during the 17th century and is renowned for his landscape paintings that imbue classical and biblical subjects with a poetic quality. This work, which dates from around 1663, is part of a series of paintings by Claude that depict scenes from the Apocryphal Book of Tobit, a narrative that was a popular source of inspiration for artists during the Baroque period.

The painting illustrates the moment from the story when the young Tobias, accompanied by the Archangel Raphael, catches a fish that will later be used to heal his father's blindness. Claude's interpretation of the scene is characterized by his signature treatment of light and atmosphere, which creates a serene and idyllic landscape that serves as a backdrop to the biblical event. The figures of Tobias and the angel are harmoniously integrated into the landscape, reflecting Claude's skill in merging narrative with the natural environment.

In "Tobias and the Angel," Claude employs a classical composition, with a clear organization of space and a balanced arrangement of forms. The use of light is particularly noteworthy; the artist's mastery in rendering the effects of sunlight imbues the scene with a sense of divine presence and underscores the spiritual significance of the narrative. The landscape itself, with its detailed trees, tranquil waters, and distant mountains, is rendered with a meticulous attention to detail that is typical of Claude's work.

The painting is held in high esteem for its artistic qualities and is considered an exemplary work of Claude's mature period. It is housed in a prominent collection, reflecting its importance in the oeuvre of the artist and in the history of European art. "Tobias and the Angel" continues to be studied for its aesthetic achievements and its contribution to the development of landscape painting in the Baroque era.
