Description: | Signed: yes Description: The French painter Daubigny is now considered as a fore-runner of Impressionism. From the mid 1860s he began to complete his paintings out of doors, breaking with the traditional practice of finishing works in the studio. Like the Impressionists, he was criticised in his own time for painting only an 'impression' of nature. Cap Gris Nez is on the northern coast of France, opposite Dover. The use of broad brushstrokes, and the sketchy finish of the work probably suggest that it was painted in Daubigny's later, more Impressionistic style of the 1870s. | Subjects: | landscape; marine | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Daubigny, Charles François (French landscapist, 1817-1878) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9177... | Go to resource |
