About the Item

François-Auguste Ravier ( 1814 – 1895) Sunset Landscape 25cm x 32cm (39cm x 46cm framed) 10 x 12 inches (15 x 17 inches framed) A fabulous sunset by the early Impressionist landscape painter Auguste Ravier. The influence of the English painter J M W Turner can clearly be seen in this work. Provenance: Number 16 in a retrospective exhibition at the Galerie de L’Olympe in Lyon 1981. Ravier was born in Lyon. His parents encouraged him to prepare for a legal career, so he went to Paris. While studying law, from 1833 to 1839, he also devoted himself to painting; enrolling at the École des Beaux-Arts, where he studied with Théodore Caruelle d'Aligny. In 1835, he visited Royat, and became acquainted with Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, who had a great influence on his early style. From 1840 to 1845, at the urging of Corot, he worked in Italy, where he mingled with the French art community. Although he spent most of his time wandering through the countryside painting, he apparently never exhibited his works there. After returning to France, he settled in Crémieu until 1868, when he moved to Morestel, attracted by the lighting and impressive, isolated landscapes. Many young painters were interested in his experimental techniques, and went there to seek his advice. Much later, these artists were grouped together and called the "École de Morestel". Condition Excellent. Painted in oil onto paper and mounted on board, expensively framed. Minor abrasions to the frame.
