This is one of four pictures probably painted as a series & probably executed about 1757. The pictures are documented by etchings of three of them (in reverse) by Domenico & Lorenzo Tiepolo as the work of their father. The only picture with an identif ...
Harpignies spent the years 1850-52 in Rome where he was inspired by his surroundings in the Roman Campagna. The site of this work has not been identified, but the style suggests it is an early work, perhaps of the 1850s. ...
This is an early work. The main subject is the densely wooded river bank silhouetted against the cloudy sky & reflected in the waters of the river. The area to the right, with its dark reflections in the water, is contrasted with the lighter expanses to ...
The scene would seem to show an estuary near the sea, perhaps in far western France where Rousseau frequently painted. The sea can be seen in the distance. Rousseau would probably have painted such a small, unassuming image out of doors in front of the ac ...
The river depicted here is almost certainly the Oise, near Auvers in France. The boat in the right middle distance is ' Le Botin', a small ferry which Daubigny converted into a studio-boat in 1857. He used it for travelling up & down rivers such as the O ...
The artist painted a number of 'capricci' of this sort in which a known monument is set within a fanciful arrangement of ruins. The pyramid is based on that of Caius Cestius in Rome, while all of the other elements are invented. It has been suggested that this is one of the artist's earlier works & can be dated to about 1730. It may include some intervention by a member of his studio. ...

These paintings have been traditionally attributed to Pieter van Laer, but are now regarded as early works by Jan Lingelbach painted during his stay in Rome in the 1640s when he closely imitated van Laer. They have also been attributed to the anonymous ' Master of the Small Trades'. ...
Panini specialised in architectural views & painted several pictures showing the interior of St Peter's in Rome. The viewpoint he has adopted here shows the vast scale & the splendour of the building. At the far end is Bernini's bronze canopy, erected ...

This view is traditionally described as a depiction of the river Seine, but the specific site has not been indentified. The painting once included a large ship on the right, which may have been part of a previous picture.
