Basing his work on carefully observed studies of nature, the most important landscape painter of the seventeenth century created Arcadian, timeless, classic paintings, often of biblical or mythological scenes.\u003cBR\u003eLorrain’s idealized landscapes are immersed in soft light, and very early on they excited travelers to Rome doing the Grand Tour—today, many of his works are included in British collections, and the English garden itself was definitely influenced by his aesthetics. In order to protect his paintings from being plagiarized, he drew copies of them in his \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eLiber Veritatis,\u003c\/I\u003e which, as a work of art in its own right, is an expression of the artist’s belief that his drawings and prints were on an equal par with the paintings. This volume presents 140 of Lorrain’s works, including the “pendants,” which make the artist’s unconventional approach remarkably palpable.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; tab-stops: 0cm\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-outline-level: 1; tab-stops: 0cm\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Städel Museum, Frankfurt\/Main, February 3–May 6, 2012 \u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874818355464,"sku":"9783775732284","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775732284_3e68fc70-da6a-4905-86a2-ee692fc903e1.jpg?v=1744051781","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16996-claude-lorrain","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
