"An Extensive Italianate Landscape with Jacob Wrestling with the Angel" is a masterpiece by Jan Soens, a prominent Netherlandish painter in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Known for his distinct fusion of landscape and religious themes, this work beautifully embodies Soens' uncommon style and thematic choice.

The piece itself presents a stunning panorama of an Italianate landscape, an artistic style and genre that was prevalent in Dutch and Netherlandish painting of the period. Such landscapes are characterized by their lush, verdant expanses and the inclusion of distinctly Italian architectural elements or ruins. These elements are evident in Soens' work, which features an expansive view of a rural landscape, gesturing toward the influence of Italian Renaissance art.

The painting also depicts a narrative from the Book of Genesis, where Jacob wrestles with a figure, commonly interpreted as an angel or God. This blending of biblical narrative with a sweeping landscape is a distinctive feature of Soens' work, paralleling the domestication of the divine in the everyday, a prevalent theme during the period. Jacob’s wrestling with the Angel is ruggedly captured in the foreground, while the serene landscape stretching to the horizon in the background offers a striking contrast.

The painting, thus, provides us with a look into the stylistic and thematic concerns of Soens, offering a confluence of religious themes and rich landscapes, a trademark of the Dutch and Italianate aesthetic of the era. It eloquently speaks to Soens' dexterity as a painter and his ability to balance overt religious themes with themes of nature and architecture, a balance he masters exquisitely in this very piece. This work remains a notable contribution to the canon of religious and landscape paintings from the Dutch Golden Age.
