Hunter on Horseback, Tiepolo, Giambattista (1696-1770)

River and Rocks. Artist: Gustave Courbet (French, Ornans 1819-1877 La Tour-de-Peilz). Dimensions: 19 5/8 x 23 7/8 in. (49.8 x 60.6 cm). Date: 1873-77.This picture dates to the last years of Courbet's life, from 1873 to 1877, which he spent as an expatriate in Switzerland. Like many landscapes that he produced at this time, it is a variation on the artist's earlier depictions of the beloved terrain of his native France. In order to pay his debts and to meet the growing demand for his work, Courbet often turned to members of his studio for assistance with such canvases. The present painting has been associated with the hand of his student Marcel Ordinaire (1848-1896). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Harbor Scene with a Grotto and Fishermen Hauling in Nets Style of Joseph Vernet French Joseph Vernet (1714-1789) evolved a luminous landscape style inspired by the port cities of Italy and the precedent of the painter Claude Lorrain (1600-1682). Vernets fame led to the imitation of his compositions by many followers, such as Charles François Lacroix de Marseille (ca. 1700-ca. 1779) and Francesco Fidanza (1747-1819). The painter who created this seascape remains unknown, but they have taken compositional components from works by Vernet that were engraved in the 1770s..
