About the Item

Jean Joseph Bonaventure LAURENS (Atributed to) Carpentras, 1801 – Montpellier, 1890 View of Grenoble from the heights Oil on canvas mounted on cardboard 35.5 x 42.5 cm (46.5 x 54.5 cm with the frame) Old stamp on the verso “n. 204 / Laurens JB / Montpellier” Another old stamp on the verso locating the painting “Grenoble / Between the Isère and the Drac / Seen from the path of the g. Chatreuse by the Sappey near the Sacré Coeur” Beautiful varnished fruitwood frame Very good condition Jean Joseph Bonaventure Laurens was born on July 14, 1801 in Carpentras. He was a painter, watercolorist, lithographer, but also a musician and archaeologist. He also set up a painting and music workshop in his accommodation at the Faculty of Medicine of Montpellier where he worked as a “secretary and accounting officer”. Bonaventure Laurens frequented musicians (Liszt, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Brahms) as well as painters (Ingres, Corot, Cabanel). His younger brother was the painter Jules Laurens (1825-1901). We know of many landscapes painted in watercolor by Bonaventure Laurens but his painters are very rare. This view from the heights of Grenoble shows his talent as a painter, particularly in the very beautiful sky and the rendering of nature, at the same time as his talents as a draftsman in the multiple architectural details of the city of Grenoble and its surroundings.
