"A Wooded River Landscape with Echo and Narcissus" is a painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens, created circa 1636–1638. This artwork is a prime example of Rubens's mastery in combining mythological themes with natural landscapes. The painting depicts the tragic story of Narcissus and Echo from Ovid's "Metamorphoses," where Narcissus, a beautiful youth, falls in love with his own reflection in a pool of water, leading to his demise, while Echo, a nymph cursed to only repeat the words of others, pines away for him until only her voice remains.

The composition is characterized by Rubens's vigorous brushwork and dynamic arrangement of figures within a lush, verdant setting. The scene is set in a dense, atmospheric forest where light and shadow play across the canvas, highlighting the sensuality and drama of the mythological narrative. The figures of Echo and Narcissus are typically rendered with the robust, energetic forms that are characteristic of Rubens's style, and their emotional turmoil is captured through expressive gestures and gazes.

Rubens's ability to fuse the natural world with storytelling is evident in this work, as the landscape itself becomes an active participant in the narrative. The winding river and the trees seem to respond to the unfolding drama, creating a sense of unity between humanity and nature. "A Wooded River Landscape with Echo and Narcissus" not only exemplifies Rubens's skill as a painter of historical and mythological subjects but also reflects the broader Baroque interest in emotion, movement, and the interplay of light and color.

This painting is part of Rubens's later oeuvre, a period in which he had achieved significant success and recognition throughout Europe. It showcases his continued innovation and influence in the realm of Baroque art. Today, "A Wooded River Landscape with Echo and Narcissus" is held in a private collection, and it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
