Claude Lorrain: The Enchanted Landscape

About

Claude lorrain: the enchanted landscape is the first major exhibition in over a decade to look at the 17th-century master Claude Gellée (c.1600—1682), known as Claude Lorrain. In partnership with the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, the exhibition brings together 140 works from international collections, created at different points in Claude's career. By uniting ‘pairs' of his paintings and making a comprehensive survey of his work in different media, the exhibition brings new research to bear on his working methods. The show will display some of Claude's greatest masterpieces, works which have made his art familiar and well-loved, in Great Britain especially. In placing these beside his graphic art and looking at his unique methods of working, the exhibition aims to expose an unexplored aspect in the work of one of the most famous names in Western Art.
