Villerville Seen from Le Ratier, 1855. Creator: Charles Francois Daubigny (French, 1817-1878)
Villerville Seen from Le Ratier, 1855. The town of Villerville on the Normandy coast appears just to the right of center in this expansive landscape by Daubigny, a pioneer of outdoor painting and a major influence on Claude Monet and the Impressionists. Daubigny introduced a new kind of natural landscape based on outdoor studies of light, water, and atmospheric conditions. Here, streaks of bright light along the horizon set off the dark masses of the rocky shore in the foreground

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charles Francois Daubigny's masterpiece, "Villerville Seen from Le Ratier" painted in 1855. Daubigny, a renowned French artist of the 19th century, was not only a pioneer of outdoor painting but also a significant influence on Claude Monet and the Impressionists. In this expansive landscape, Villerville, a charming town nestled along the Normandy coast, takes center stage just to the right. Daubigny's innovative approach to natural landscapes is evident as he meticulously captures the interplay between light, water, and atmospheric conditions through his outdoor studies. The composition features streaks of brilliant light delicately tracing the horizon while contrasting against the dark masses of rocky shores in the foreground. This juxtaposition creates an enchanting visual narrative that draws viewers into its serene beauty. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art and now available as a stunning print by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, this artwork serves as a testament to Daubigny's mastery and enduring legacy within French art history.
