"An Extensive Mountainous Landscape with Cephalus and Procris" is a renowned 16th-century engraving by the Italian artist Domenico Campagnola, a prominent figure in the Venetian Renaissance. Born in Padua in 1500, Campagnola was an accomplished painter, but his fame primarily rests on his work as an engraver and draughtsman. This particular piece is celebrated for its intricate depiction of a mythological scene set within a vast and detailed landscape, a subject that reflects the Renaissance interest in classical antiquity and the natural world.

The engraving illustrates the tragic story of Cephalus and Procris from Ovid's "Metamorphoses." In the foreground, the figures of Cephalus and Procris are depicted at a pivotal moment in their narrative, surrounded by the wilderness that plays a crucial role in their tale. The background is characterized by an expansive view of mountains, trees, and valleys, showcasing Campagnola's skill in creating depth and texture through the medium of engraving.

Campagnola's work is noted for its fusion of Northern Renaissance influences, which he may have absorbed through his association with Albrecht Dürer, and the Venetian artistic tradition, marked by a focus on landscape and atmospheric effects. "An Extensive Mountainous Landscape with Cephalus and Procris" is a testament to this blend, demonstrating both technical mastery and a poetic sensibility in its execution.

The engraving is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors for its fine lines, attention to detail, and the emotional resonance of the mythological subject matter. It is considered a significant contribution to the body of Renaissance prints and has been studied for its artistic and historical value, contributing to our understanding of the period's visual culture and the evolution of landscape representation in art.

Today, the work can be found in the collections of major museums and galleries around the world, where it continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic beauty and as an example of Campagnola's exceptional talent in the realm of printmaking.
