"Dorflandschaft mit Kolfspielenden Bauern" (Village Landscape with Peasants Playing Kolf) is a painting by Flemish artist Thomas van Apshoven, presumed to have been created in the 17th century, during the Baroque period. Van Apshoven, born in Antwerp in 1622, was a pupil of the renowned landscape painter David Teniers the Younger, whose influence is evident in Thomas's work. The painting depicts a bucolic scene with peasants engaging in the game of kolf, an early form of golf, in a village setting.

The artwork is characteristic of van Apshoven's style, which often included genre scenes set in landscapes or village surroundings. His paintings typically feature everyday life and activities, imbued with a sense of realism and attention to detail. "Dorflandschaft mit Kolfspielenden Bauern" is no exception, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing the light, atmosphere, and the rustic charm of peasant life.

The game of kolf, which is the central activity in the painting, was a popular pastime in the Netherlands and Flanders during the 17th century. It involved players using a stick to hit a ball towards a target, often a post or a gate, and was played both on ice and on grass. The inclusion of this game in the painting not only provides insight into the leisure activities of the period but also adds a dynamic element to the otherwise tranquil village scene.

Thomas van Apshoven's work has been compared to that of his contemporaries, and while he may not have achieved the same level of fame as Teniers, his paintings are valued for their contribution to the genre of landscape and peasant-life paintings of the Flemish Baroque. "Dorflandschaft mit Kolfspielenden Bauern" represents an important piece within van Apshoven's oeuvre, offering a glimpse into the cultural and social history of the era through the lens of art.
