"Polyphemus Sitting On A Mountain In An Extensive Landscape" is a notable painting by the Italian Baroque artist Pier Francesco Mola, created in the mid-17th century. Mola, born in 1612 in Coldrerio, Switzerland, and active primarily in Rome, is recognized for his contributions to the Baroque movement, characterized by dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as dynamic compositions.

The painting depicts the mythological figure Polyphemus, a Cyclops from Greek mythology, known for his encounter with Odysseus in Homer's epic, "The Odyssey." In this work, Polyphemus is portrayed in a contemplative pose, seated atop a mountain, overlooking a vast and expansive landscape. The scene is imbued with a sense of tranquility and introspection, diverging from the more violent and aggressive depictions of the Cyclops in other artworks and literary sources.

Mola's use of light and color in "Polyphemus Sitting On A Mountain In An Extensive Landscape" is exemplary of his style, which often blends the dramatic intensity of the Baroque with a softer, more lyrical approach to landscape. The painting's composition draws the viewer's eye from the foreground, where Polyphemus is situated, to the distant horizon, creating a sense of depth and vastness. This technique not only emphasizes the solitude of the Cyclops but also highlights the grandeur of the natural world surrounding him.

The work reflects Mola's skill in integrating figures within their environments, creating a harmonious balance between human presence and nature. This painting is a testament to Mola's ability to convey complex emotional states through his characters, as well as his mastery in landscape painting. "Polyphemus Sitting On A Mountain In An Extensive Landscape" remains an important piece within Mola's oeuvre and a significant example of 17th-century Italian Baroque art.
