"Lake Albano with the Castel Gandolfo beyond" is an 18th-century landscape painting by the Welsh artist Richard Wilson, who is often regarded as the father of British landscape painting in the classical style. The painting depicts a serene view of Lake Albano, a volcanic crater lake in the Alban Hills of Lazio, Italy, with the Papal residence of Castel Gandolfo in the distance. This work is one of several Italian landscapes painted by Wilson during his stay in Italy from 1750 to 1757, a period when he was profoundly influenced by the works of classical landscape painters such as Claude Lorrain and Gaspard Dughet.

The painting is notable for its atmospheric perspective and the use of light to create depth and mood, which was a departure from the topographical accuracy that characterized earlier British landscape works. Wilson's composition presents a harmonious blend of nature and architecture, with the tranquil waters of the lake reflecting the sky and the grandeur of the distant Castel Gandolfo. The inclusion of figures in the foreground, often a feature of Wilson's landscapes, adds a human element to the scene, inviting viewers to contemplate the relationship between humanity and the natural world.

"Lake Albano with the Castel Gandolfo beyond" is considered an important work in Richard Wilson's oeuvre, exemplifying his contribution to the development of landscape painting in Britain. By infusing his landscapes with a poetic and often idealized vision of nature, Wilson helped elevate the genre to a level of greater respectability, paving the way for later British landscape artists such as John Constable and J.M.W. Turner. The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is often included in discussions of the artist's impact on the evolution of landscape painting.
