Follower of Francesco Guardi, Figures in a Mediterranean port by a Roman Arch

Circa 1850

About the Item

A lively, well executed sketch painted by a 19th century follower of Francesco Guardi Follower of Francesco Guardi, 19th Century Figures by a Roman Arch Watercolour with ink and scratching out 6½ x 5 inches (excluding the frame) 12 x 10 inches with the frame Francesco Guardi was Venetian painter, the best-known member of a family of artists. He is now famous for his views of Venice, indeed next to Canaletto he is the most celebrated view-painter (see veduta) of the 18th century, but he produced work on a great variety of subjects and seems to have concentrated on views only after the death of his brother Gianantonio (bapt. Vienna, 27 May 1699; d Venice, 22 Jan. 1760). Until then Francesco's personality was largely submerged in the family studio, of which Gianantonio was head and which handled commissions of every kind.
