"A Capriccio of a Mediterranean Harbour with Oriental Merchants Conversing on a Quay" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Johannes Lingelbach. Known for his skillful depiction of Italianate landscapes and genre scenes, Lingelbach's work often reflects the influence of his travels through France and Italy, where he absorbed the Mediterranean light and atmosphere that would become characteristic of his paintings.

This particular capriccio—a term used to describe a fantasy landscape where architectural and natural elements are combined in a picturesque and often whimsical manner—depicts a bustling port scene. The painting is rich with detail, showcasing a variety of figures, from Oriental merchants to European townspeople, engaging in conversation and commerce along a quay. The architecture in the painting suggests a blend of European and Eastern styles, further emphasizing the exotic and imaginative quality of the scene.

Lingelbach's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textures of the sea, stone, and fabric, lend a sense of vibrancy and movement to the composition. The artwork serves as a testament to the cultural exchanges that occurred in port cities during the 17th century and reflects the fascination with the "Orient" that was prevalent in European art of the time.

The painting is notable for its historical and artistic value, providing insight into the era's artistic trends and the Dutch fascination with travel and trade. "A Capriccio of a Mediterranean Harbour with Oriental Merchants Conversing on a Quay" remains an important work in the oeuvre of Johannes Lingelbach and is a fine example of the capriccio genre that was popular among Dutch and Flemish artists of the period.
