In the fluid brushmarks and sketch-like treatment of the rocks and architectural details, these works can be dated to the later part of Gaspard Dughet’s oeuvre. The balancing compositions suggest that they were always designed as a pair, with the straight path in the first flowing into the winding path in the second. The early influence of Dughet’s work in England can be discerned in details like the thin tree in the right foreground of the Landscape with figures on a road, which, together with the distant town on the hillside, informed artists like Richard Wilson (1714-1782) in his Tivoli: Temple of the Sibyl and the Campagna (Private collection; see Richard Wilson Online Catalogue Raisonné, no. P142). Early in their history, the paintings entered the collection of the Duke of Newcastle, remaining with the family until their sale in these Rooms in 1939.
