Impression from the Original Drawing in the Collection of R. P. Knight, Plate No. 67
C. 1810
Each piece in this collection is a landscape engraving after Claude Lorrain's notable paintings. Engraved by Richard Earlom and published by John Boydell it showcases different perspectives of nature throughout London such as towns, hillsides, and seashores.
Claude Lorrain, also known as Claude Gellee, was a French artist best recognized for artistry in "ideal landscape painting" (idealistic perspective of nature's true beauty). Lorrain often attributed his inspirations to classical concepts of Rome's countryside. Training under the well-respected Agostino Tassi, Lorrain's talent in landscape painting flourished throughout his career. His first known artwork is Landscape with Cattle and Peasants, painted in 1629 and he has since become renowned for his presentation of nature, views of the sun as it reflects on seawater, and rivers from dawn to dusk.
