Description: | This painting contains many similar elements to those seen in known Vernet paintings. Vernet, born in Avignon, may have received his first panting lessons from his father, though then trained under Philip Sauvan, the leading master in Avignon at the time. Following this he worked in Aix-en-Provence, and was later sponsored to go on a trip to Italy, where he completed his artistic education. Exposed to the Roman works of Claude Lorrain, Salvator Rosa, Gaspard Dughet and others, Vernet too specialised in landscape painting. | Subjects: | marine | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Vernet, Claude-Joseph (French painter and draftsman, 1714-1789) Æ Attributed to after | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8422... | Go to resource |
