About this artwork
A landscape painter and engraver, Mauperché was a student of Louis de Boullogne the elder and one of the founders of the Royal Academy. Influenced by Flemish and Dutch artists, as well as by Claude Lorrain, he produced an important graphic oeuvre of more than fifty prints, almost all of his own invention.
