Description: | Signed: yes Description: Although he was never part of the Barbizon School of artists who painted from nature in the Forest of Fontainebleau south of Paris, Henri Harpignies had close connections with them. The grey-green tonality, limpid light and careful draughtsmanship of this scene of duck-shooting on the bank of the river Allier in the Auvergne, which he exhibited at the 1861 Salon, exemplify his essentially conservative style, which changed little over a long career. | Subjects: | landscape; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Harpignies, Henri-Joseph (French painter and printmaker, 1819-1916) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9179... | Go to resource |
