Description: | Signed: yes Description: The ruins depicted in this rural landscape are consistent with the period of the painting: the beginnings of Romanticism and the interest for all things medieval. Petit appears to have been interested in architectural views and painted landscapes inspired by ruined and existing buildings, be it in France or Italy. Petit studied under Huet and exhibited at the Salon between 1791 and 1819. | Subjects: | landscape; figure; animal (cow) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Petit, Pierre Joseph (French painter, active 1785-1819) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9007... | Go to resource |
