Description
This is a large and impressive original mid 20th Century oil on board landscape painting depicting Eton College from the River Thames, Berkshire. Painted during the 1950s after an 18th Century work by the famous Italian artist Canaletto (1697-1768). Description of the original work reads: The view is from the bank of the River Thames, looking across a sprawling meadow towards Eton College on the horizon. A shady glade gives way to a softly lit landscape, with folk enjoying the summer’s day – a family group is picnicking while other people fish and boat nearby. A finely painted tree frames and leads the eye towards the middle distance, as do the layers of landscape and river bathed in subtle variations of light and shadow. There are a number of inaccuracies in the depiction of the chapel, college buildings and surrounding houses, which suggests the artist had little knowledge of the view and perhaps relied on a sketch made on the spot at an earlier date. Originally painted in around 1754, this is one of the last pictures Canaletto made during his nine-year stay in England; by 1755 he had returned home to Venice. Attributes:- Oil on board Circa: 1950-1959 *Certificate of Authenticity (COA) will be provided by artsonline with this piece* If a piece should arrive damaged on an extremely rare occasion, artsonline will, of course, refund the entire purchase price, together with any return shipping cost that occurred.
