About the author
Claude Lorrain
33 books2 followersClaude Lorrain, born Claude Gellée (c. 1600 – 23 November 1682) was a landscape painter, draughtsman, and etcher of the Baroque era.
Lorrain spent most of his life in Italy, and is one of the earliest significant artists to concentrate on landscape painting. His landscapes often transitioned into the more prestigious genre of history paintings by addition of a few small figures, typically representing a scene from the Bible or classical mythology.
