Description: | As the previous attribution suggests, various elements in this painting are reminiscent of the works of Gaspard Dughet. The detail in the trees, for example, and the general composition of the landscape are characteristic of his style. The draughtsmanship is not of the same quality, however; and the image has a rigidity not usually present in Dughet's paintings. Close examination has revealed that the signature was painted on top of the craquelure of the original varnish, confirming it is false. It has been suggested that the work has closer affinities with the paintings of Jan Frans van Bloemen. | Subjects: | landscape | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: French School Æ Attributed to circle of Bloemen, Jan Frans van (Flemish painter, 1662-1749, active in France and Italy) Previously attributed to Dughet, Gaspard (French landscape painter, 1615-1675, active in Italy) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8498... | Go to resource |
