"An Italianate Landscape with Muleteers Crossing a River" is a notable 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Jan Asselyn, who was also known as Jan Asselijn. Born around 1610 in Dieppe, France, Asselyn was a landscape painter whose works were significantly influenced by his time in Italy, where he resided from approximately 1635 to 1645. This particular painting exemplifies the Italianate landscape genre that became popular among Dutch artists during the 17th century, characterized by its idealized depiction of the Italian countryside.

The painting portrays a serene and pastoral scene, where muleteers and their animals are depicted crossing a shallow river amidst a lush landscape. The composition is carefully constructed, with attention to the play of light and shadow, and the use of perspective to draw the viewer's eye into the depth of the scene. Asselyn's skill in rendering the textures of the natural world, from the foliage of the trees to the reflections on the water's surface, is evident in this work.

"An Italianate Landscape with Muleteers Crossing a River" reflects Asselyn's mastery of the Italianate style, which often included classical ruins or references to antiquity, though such elements are not the primary focus in this particular painting. Instead, Asselyn places emphasis on the tranquil daily life and the harmonious interaction between humans and nature. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Italian countryside for Northern European artists and collectors during the period.

Jan Asselyn's works are held in high esteem, and his paintings can be found in various prestigious collections, including museums and galleries across Europe. "An Italianate Landscape with Muleteers Crossing a River" remains an important example of Asselyn's oeuvre and of the Italianate landscape tradition that flourished in the Netherlands during the 17th century.
