Description: | Joséphine Bowes, the co-founder (with her husband) of the Bowes Museum, was a keen amateur painter. In 1865 the couple spent a long holiday in the village of Cernay-la-Ville, on the edge of the forest of Rambouillet, which was a popular location for artists. Joséphine liked it so much that her husband bought a small house there, which she used regularly until about 1869. This landscape would therefore have been painted in the area. | Subjects: | landscape; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Bowes, Joséphine (French artist, 1825-1874) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8950... | Go to resource |
