Oil painting on canvas depicting a landscape with figures made by a follower of Claude Lorrain, 17th century. Measures without frame: 92 x 77 cm. Claude Gellée, known as Claude Lorrain (Chamagne, c. 1600 - Rome, 1682), was a French painter, draughtsman and engraver, considered one of the undisputed masters of the ideal landscape of the 17th century. His work, characterized by serene and luminous atmospheres, immersed in idealized nature and often populated by mythological or biblical figures, profoundly influenced landscape painting for centuries to come. Born in Lorraine, Lorrain moved at a very young age to Italy, where he spent most of his life. In Rome, he entered the workshop of landscape painter Agostino Tassi and devoted himself to the in-depth study of nature, drawing inspiration from the Roman countryside and the city's surroundings. His fame grew rapidly and he soon became one of the most sought-after artists by collectors and patrons of the time. Lorrain's landscapes are distinguished by their compositional harmony, skillful use of light, and masterful rendering of atmospheric effects. His canvases are often characterized by an aerial perspective that dilates space and invites the eye to delve into an idealized nature, where classical ruins, ancient temples, and mythological figures come together in a poetic and evocative vision. Claude Lorrain's work had a profound influence on later landscape painting. Artists such as Nicolas Poussin, Gaspard Dughet, and Alexander Cozens took up his themes and technique, helping to spread the ideal landscape genre throughout Europe. And it is the idyllic and serene atmosphere of the landscape, illuminated by a warm golden light, that creates an evocative and enveloping atmosphere that links the present to the production of a follower of Claude Lorrain. See for comparison works such as the Landscape from the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Apollo and the Flocks of Admetus from a private collection, or Aeneas Hunting the Deer from the National Museum of Fine Arts, Belgium.
