"An Italianate Landscape with Drovers" is a 17th-century oil painting by Francisco Collantes, a Spanish Baroque painter known for his landscape and biblical scenes. Collantes, born in Madrid in 1599, was a contemporary of other Spanish masters such as Velázquez and was particularly celebrated for his skill in depicting light and atmospheric effects in his works.

This painting exemplifies the Italianate landscape tradition, which was popular among Northern European artists who had traveled to Italy and were inspired by its scenery. These landscapes typically feature classical ruins, pastoral figures such as drovers or shepherds, and a warm, Mediterranean light. While Collantes never traveled to Italy himself, he was influenced by this style and incorporated it into his work.

In "An Italianate Landscape with Drovers," Collantes presents a serene and idyllic scene where drovers, or cattle herders, are seen tending to their animals in a vast, open landscape. The composition is balanced with natural elements such as trees, rocks, and water, which guide the viewer's eye through the scene. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism, inviting the viewer to enter into the pastoral world depicted on the canvas.

The painting is a testament to Collantes' ability to blend the realistic depiction of nature with a sense of poetic idealization, characteristic of the Italianate style. It also reflects the broader European interest in the classical past and the romanticized vision of the countryside during the Baroque period.

"An Italianate Landscape with Drovers" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and is considered an important work within Francisco Collantes' oeuvre. It contributes to the understanding of the diffusion of Italianate influences across Europe and the development of landscape painting in Spain during the 17th century. The painting can be found in various art historical references and is studied for its technique, composition, and place within the context of Spanish Baroque art.
