18th Century Italian Landscape Manner of Claude Lorrain

Manner of Claude Lorrain

Provenance Story:

This elegant 18th-century Italian landscape, painted in the manner of Claude Lorrain, emerges from a distinguished Sussex private collection where it has resided for over three decades. The previous owner, a passionate collector of Old Master-style artworks, acquired the painting in the late 20th century from a well-regarded dealer specializing in Italian Baroque pieces. The painting has since been professionally conserved—cleaned and sensitively relined—ensuring its tonal vibrancy and compositional balance remain intact.

Notably, the composition bears strong resemblance to a Claude Lorrain work housed in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., suggesting the artist drew direct influence from Lorrain's idyllic visions of merchant life along the Italian riverscapes. The interplay of classical ruins, soft golden lighting, and harmonized natural elements aligns closely with Lorrain's approach, reinforcing the attribution to his stylistic circle.

This work has never before been offered on the open market, making it a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire a piece rooted in the legacy of one of the Baroque period’s most influential landscape painters. Its carefully preserved condition and decorative grandeur affirm its status as a refined testament to the enduring appeal of 18th-century Italian pastoral painting.
