EDITORS COMMENTS
Claude Lorrain's 'Landscape' is a breathtaking work of art from the 17th century, showcased in the hallowed halls of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. This masterpiece, created by the renowned French artist Claude Gellée, also known as Claude Lorrain or Claude Lorraine, is a stunning example of the pastoral tradition in European art. The black and white print, executed in pen and brown ink and watercolour, transports us to a tranquil and idyllic landscape. The rolling hills are dotted with trees, their branches reaching out to touch the clear blue sky. The verdant landscape is populated by goats grazing peacefully among the rocks and ruins. The animals, with their curious and alert expressions, add a sense of life and energy to the scene. The ruins, half-hidden among the trees, add a sense of history and heritage to the landscape. The classical buildings, with their columns and arches, speak of a time long past. The use of black and white enhances the sense of timelessness and adds depth and texture to the image. The figure of Claude Lorrain himself can be seen in the lower right corner, sketching the scene with a determined expression. This self-portrait adds a personal touch to the work, reminding us of the artist's connection to the natural world and his dedication to capturing its beauty. Overall, this 'Landscape' by Claude Lorrain is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another time and place, to inspire and delight us with its beauty and depth. It is a treasure of the art world, a work to be cherished and admired for generations to come.
