Richard Earlom after Claude Lorrain
Richard Earlom after Claude Lorrain - 1775 Mezzotint, Driving Cattle

1775

About the Item

A fine and striking sepia mezzotint engraved by Richard Earlom (1743-1822) after the original drawing by Claude Lorrain (1600-1682). Earlom was an accomplished engraver and has used a mix of etching for the graphic lines and mezzotint for the ink washes to create a print with high contrast that mimics Lorrain's fine penmanship. The engraving shows a young man and his dog driving cattle across a for at the bottom of fort town. The engraving has been inscribed in plate with the names of the engraver, artist and publisher. The engraving is presented in a grey card mount and a thin, glazed, gilt frame. On laid.

    By Michele Zalopany
    Located in New York, NY
    Michele Zalopany was born in Detroit, Michigan. She attended the Columbus College of Art and Design from 1973 to 1974 and the Cleveland Institute of Art from 1976 to 1978. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the School of Visual Arts in 1981. Through her labor-intensive mezzotints, Zalopany employs realism to depict fictitious scenes, bearing witness to the disintegration of what was once the fulcrum of the American economy in Detroit. Zalopany’s work is widely represented in many public and private collections in the United States and in Europe including The National Gallery of Art, The Yokohama Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Walker Art Center, The Museum of Fine Art in Boston, The Cleveland Museum of Art, The Royal College of Art in London, and numerous others. Her work has been exhibited in galleries that include P.P.O.W., John Good...
