About the Item
Gouache of a Shipwreck in a Storm with Gothic Ruins, Early 19th Century
Technique: Gouache on paper
Period: Early 19th century
Description: This romantic painting depicts a dramatic scene where the stormy sea engulfs large ships, while small human figures on the shore desperately struggle to survive. Nature reigns supreme as vegetation starts to envelop the Gothic ruins on the promontory, symbolizing the triumph of nature over human constructions. The tiny figures, dwarfed by the vast landscape, emphasize the contrast between human fragility and the unstoppable power of the elements.
The stormy sky is illuminated by a dusky pink light, heightening the unsettling atmosphere of the scene. This dramatic lighting enhances the contrast between the violence of the storm and the delicate hues.
Frame: Modern frame with green velvet passe-partout, enhancing the chromatic contrasts of the painting.
Dimensions with frame: L 57 cm x H 46 cm
Dimensions without frame: L 43 cm x H 32 cm

View of the Ovo Castle in the Moonlight, a 19th century Neapolitan gouache
Located in PARIS, FR
Neapolitan gouaches appeared in the eighteenth century when tourism in the Naples area was developing: the discoveries of Herculaneum and Pompeii made this city a mandatory stop on the Grand Tour, the journey made by wealthy Europeans to complete their education.
Generally small in size for ease of transport and affordable in price, these gouaches were the ideal travel souvenir that these tourists of the early days were bringing back to capture the idyllic landscapes they had discovered during their journey and to share them with family and friends upon their return at home.
The Bay of Naples and the eruptions of Vesuvius are the favourite themes of these views. Here we have a view of the Ovo Castle, which was rebuilt on the island of Partenope, in the middle of the Bay of Naples and about a hundred metres from the shore by the Normans in the 12th century on antique ruins...

View of Ariccia, a preparatory drawing by Achille Bénouville (1815 - 1891)
Located in PARIS, FR
This very modern drawing presents a view of Ariccia, a small town 25 kilometres south-east of Rome. The Palazzo Chigi (in which the film-maker Luchino Visconti would film a large part of The Leopard a century later) and the adjoining church are seen from the bottom of the ravine that surrounds the town. This drawing is a moving testimony to the attraction of the city for artists of the Romantic period, who established in Ariccia a vivid artists' colony.
