Ludolf Leendertsz. de Jongh was a Dutch painter whose training took him through several cities. Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen names Cornelis Saftleven in Rotterdam, Anthonie Palamedesz in Delft and Jan van Bijlert in Utrecht among his teachers. He subsequently worked in France from 1635 to 1642. His repertoire includes portraits, genre scenes, hunting subjects and urban views.
Scene in a Courtyard, painted in the early 1660s and held by the Metropolitan Museum, belongs to his treatment of everyday life. This oil on canvas measures approximately sixty-seven by eighty-two centimetres. In A Formal Garden: Three Ladies Surprised by a Gentleman, dated around 1676 and held in the Royal Collection, an encounter between the figures takes place in a cultivated garden, another setting for his scenes of sociability.
