About Charles-François Daubigny

1817–1878 • France

One of the earliest exponents of 'plein air' painting in France. Closely associated with the Barbizon School although he did not live at Barbizon. His works are often uncrowded scenes of rivers, beaches and canals, noted for their clear atmospheric effects.
