"Tobie Et L'ange" is a notable Baroque landscape painting created around 1670 by Salvator Rosa, a prominent Southern Italian artist. Although primarily a landscape, it elevates to a history painting by including small figures of Tobias and the Angel, significant figures from a Christian subject from the Book of Tobit. The scene features the angel guiding Tobias, with the Tigris River’s fish present. Painted on a panel using oil oil paints, it exemplifies the dynamic composition characteristic of religious painting. Today, it resides in the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Strasbourg, France, with the inventory number 182.
